STM32F4 Possible ADC Configuration?

Hello all,

I am using the ADC1 regular conversion or ADC1/2 dual-mode regular conversion to acquire a video signal.  The dual-mode is used at higher frame rate.  In both case, I am using the DMA. This part is working without a glitch.

Now, I want to use the ADC3 to convert in regular mode a few other channels.  I start the conversion after the video signal conversion is completed.  The problem I have is that when I am using the dual-mode at higher frame rate, it seems the ADC3 is alway busy.

Could you tell me if this configuration is possible?

ADC1/2 regular dual-mode with DMA.

ADC3 regular single conversion.

Thank you

Hi Keaven,

Your configuration doesn't seem to be an odd one.

The problem I have is that when I am using the dual-mode at higher frame rate, it seems the ADC3 is alway busy. 

How exactly is ADC3 busy? Is there any error flag?

Did you tried other configuration for ADC1/2 on which ADC3 is working also?

When you debug your code, does it get stuck at a some level?
