Posted on August 11, 2010 at 09:47Due to a hardware revision my application firmware on STR750F has to detect (for compatibility with the older hardware) the presence of a resistor divider on a GPIO pin not connected before. If detected, the resistor divider ha to be read as analog input.
The resistor divider is made to generate a voltage level always less than the VIL,max = 0.8V. So I first configure the GPIO pin as input pullup: if I read 0, the resistor divider is present and then I can configure the GPIO pin as analog input to be read with the internal 10-bit ADC.
This is my code:
...
GPIO_InitTypeDef GPIO_InitStructure;
// P1.13 as input pullup
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Mode = GPIO_Mode_IPU;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Pin = GPIO_Pin_13;
GPIO_Init(GPIO1, &GPIO_InitStructure);
// check if the resistor divider is present
if( !(GPIO1->PD & GPIO_Pin_13) )
{
// P1.13 as analog input
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Mode = GPIO_Mode_AIN;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Pin = GPIO_Pin_13;
GPIO_Init(GPIO1, &GPIO_InitStructure);
// init ADC
InitADC();
...
}
...
With that code the check works properly, but the value read by the ADC is always about three times grater than the expected value. Why?
Instead, If at reset I configure the GPIO pin as analog input (assuming the resistor divider is present), the value read by the ADC is always good (the expected value).
Could you please help me to fix this issue?
