Seting up ADC in dual mode with DMA - Manual is not satisfying.

Tobe
Senior III

I have some problems getting all the information out of the manual.

Using HAL is no option.

There are a lot of questions (Question are all refering to "Injected simultaneous mode") that cant be answered, or details that are confusing:
- When in Injected simultaneous mode, regular conversions are possible, but use the settings of the common registers for dual settings?
- Picture "say what": It does not really say how it would behave in that case.
- With all the information i gathered, i can not really determine, how the ADC would work in combination with DMA. When i start regular conversions on ADC2, is it then considered dual mode?

It would be helpful to have a checklist, or a table, that show what has to be orcan be set in different modes. Is there such information availlable? Or anyone knows of a good tutorial?

Why? Its just doing the setup , as you want it. The speed of ADC is always same - using HAL , or not.

Same way, as on other cpus , just more complex than on an old F103 (DMA + MDMA ),

maybe read the 120 pages of ADC in rm ... or use HAL for making it more easy.

Did you check the app notes for the cpu you use ? (here G474 -> )

and general ADC ->

HAL uses too much space, and i also need to understand how things work in order to have them doing exactly what i want.

You have posted a picture of the wrong mode. Yes, its confusing sometimes.

Thanks for your information, but i could not get the information that answers my questions.

I trying to make things simpler, by just using ADC2 regular, but things arent working anyway. Isnt there a checklist, for settings that must be setup with DMA? Those steps in the manual are just not sufficient. I have worked the first time with ADC and DMA before (Without HAL), but i cant combine them. But maybe i am just missing some hidden but yet important information.

 

>HAL uses too much space

On a cpu with 512K flash (G474 ) the 10..20K for HAL are "too much" ? really ??

btw. You could also use the LL lib, needing about same space , as bare metal .

>Isnt there a checklist, for settings that must be setup with DMA? 

I would use the HAL , to do the setup - even if you dont wanna use it in the end - but ,

just to look, how its doing the setup . Then you know, how to do it.

Why do you think i got the G474?

Wrong - you didnt tell , which cpu you have, so cannot know.

I took just a G4 , i looked at and have ds and rm, as an example.

You should have asked then, and not written about assumptions.
