How to measure VBAT using ADC correctly in STM32U073RCT6 MCU

RB4020
Associate II

Hi everyone!
I'm having trouble in measuring the VBAT through ADC. I'm using a battery of 2.5V and when I measure VBAT through ADC, I'm getting values around 4000mV. 

Here's my code:

/**
  * @brief ADC1 Initialization Function
  * @PAram None
  * @retval None
  */
static void MX_ADC1_Init(void)
{

  /* USER CODE BEGIN ADC1_Init 0 */

  /* USER CODE END ADC1_Init 0 */

  ADC_ChannelConfTypeDef sConfig = {0};

  /* USER CODE BEGIN ADC1_Init 1 */

  /* USER CODE END ADC1_Init 1 */

  /** Configure the global features of the ADC (Clock, Resolution, Data Alignment and number of conversion)
  */
  hadc1.Instance = ADC1;
  hadc1.Init.ClockPrescaler = ADC_CLOCK_SYNC_PCLK_DIV1;
  hadc1.Init.Resolution = ADC_RESOLUTION_12B;
  hadc1.Init.DataAlign = ADC_DATAALIGN_RIGHT;
  hadc1.Init.ScanConvMode = ADC_SCAN_DISABLE;
  hadc1.Init.EOCSelection = ADC_EOC_SINGLE_CONV;
  hadc1.Init.LowPowerAutoWait = DISABLE;
  hadc1.Init.LowPowerAutoPowerOff = DISABLE;
  hadc1.Init.ContinuousConvMode = DISABLE;
  hadc1.Init.NbrOfConversion = 1;
  hadc1.Init.DiscontinuousConvMode = DISABLE;
  hadc1.Init.ExternalTrigConv = ADC_SOFTWARE_START;
  hadc1.Init.ExternalTrigConvEdge = ADC_EXTERNALTRIGCONVEDGE_NONE;
  hadc1.Init.DMAContinuousRequests = DISABLE;
  hadc1.Init.Overrun = ADC_OVR_DATA_PRESERVED;
  hadc1.Init.SamplingTimeCommon1 = ADC_SAMPLETIME_160CYCLES_5;
  hadc1.Init.SamplingTimeCommon2 = ADC_SAMPLETIME_1CYCLE_5;
  hadc1.Init.OversamplingMode = DISABLE;
  hadc1.Init.TriggerFrequencyMode = ADC_TRIGGER_FREQ_HIGH;
  if (HAL_ADC_Init(&hadc1) != HAL_OK)
  {
    Error_Handler();
  }

  /** Configure Regular Channel
  */
  sConfig.Channel = ADC_CHANNEL_VREFINT;
  sConfig.Rank = ADC_REGULAR_RANK_1;
  sConfig.SamplingTime = ADC_SAMPLINGTIME_COMMON_1;
  if (HAL_ADC_ConfigChannel(&hadc1, &sConfig) != HAL_OK)
  {
    Error_Handler();
  }
  /* USER CODE BEGIN ADC1_Init 2 */

  /* USER CODE END ADC1_Init 2 */

}

Note: I'm keeping the MCU in Stop2 Mode. So, I'm de-initializing the ADC every time I go to Stop2 mode.

void measure_voltage(){
    // Initialize ADC1
    HAL_ADC_Init(&hadc1);  

    // Always calibrate ADC first
    // HAL_ADCEx_Calibration_Start(&hadc1);

    // Start the conversion sequence
    HAL_ADC_Start(&hadc1);

    /*
     * Rank 1: vref internal
     */
    HAL_ADC_PollForConversion(&hadc1, HAL_MAX_DELAY);
    uint32_t vrefint_data = HAL_ADC_GetValue(&hadc1);

    /*
     * This macro calculates the vdda voltage (as a uint32_t representing the voltage in milliVolts)
     * using the vref internal raw adc value, and the internal calibration value in ROM
     */
    uint32_t vdda_voltage = __HAL_ADC_CALC_VREFANALOG_VOLTAGE(vrefint_data, ADC_RESOLUTION_12B);

    bat_vol = vdda_voltage;

    // Stop the conversion sequence
    HAL_ADC_Stop(&hadc1);

    // De-initialize ADC1
    HAL_ADC_DeInit(&hadc1);

    return;
}

Can anyone please tell me where I'm doing it wrong?
