few days ago I write a post with a problem in my program.

Hi again Clive!

I read your answer last week, but I've changed some things in my program. Please, can you read my code thoroughly to explain me what I'm doing wrong? Everything is all right when I compile it, and I can execute my program, but the values are wrong. How I have to configure the ADC and DMA for save ADC1_Channel16, ADC1_Channel18 and ADC3_Channel7 values in the aADCTripleConvertedValue variable?Thanks,Miquel

The values are likely to be a jumbled mess, balance all 3 ADC, make the buffer bigger, ideally much bigger to reduce the interrupt loading.

Channels 16 and 18 require enabling their reference and require a longer ADC Sample Time to be accurate. See the Std Periph. Library for examples.

Channels 16 and 18 are available only on ADC1, so triple mode is probably not the right answer. Since The temperature sensor and VBat don't change rapidly, why not sample all three channels with ADC1?  The potentiometer channel may also require a longer ADC Sample Time if there is no buffer amplifier.

hello clive1

I'm starting programming using STM32F4 discovery board. For me is a completely new microcontroller. At the moment im some problem with multiple scan (triple scan) using NO external trigger but software trigger. I only found example usimg DMA but they don't work correctly. I see that you have great competence in Cortex uc. Can you halp me. I attached the code. Thanks in advantage Marco ________________ Attachments : clive1.c : https://st--c.eu10.content.force.com/sfc/dist/version/download/?oid=00Db0000000YtG6&ids=0680X000006I0zT&d=%2Fa%2F0X0000000bhl%2FXJ4R0pAk.Ilc1sE.4qnq_tKDqtDqUkOVMZgzlUWe63M&asPdf=false

Define ''doesn't work correctly'', what does it do, and what would it do if correct?

The code itself doesn't appear unreasonable. PA2 is channel 2 (ADC123_IN2), PC2 is channel 12 (ADC123_IN12), which had you thought of using? Your pin choices would seem to create a lot of conflicts on the STM32F4-Discovery board. Not sure if one could pull 9 analogue inputs.

hi clive1

thanks for your answer. I not able to trigger conversion using software command without trigger using esternal event. I wrote code that run with timer trigger (TIM2 for example), but I not able to trigger using manual (sw) trigger. M
