Problem with ADC on custom board

[IlliaGx]

Hello.
I have a problem with the ADC on the custom board with the STM32WB55 chip. I am using a divider and should get something around 2V, but I always get the maximum value - 4095.
I am using this code that I saw in the ST examples.

  HAL_GPIO_WritePin(ADC_OUT_GPIO_Port, ADC_OUT_Pin, GPIO_PIN_SET);
  HAL_Delay(50);

  if (HAL_ADCEx_Calibration_Start(&hadc1, ADC_SINGLE_ENDED) != HAL_OK)
  {
	  Error_Handler();
  }

  if (HAL_ADC_Start_DMA(&hadc1, (uint32_t*)aADCxConvertedData, BATTERY_ARRAY_SIZE) != HAL_OK) {

	  HAL_GPIO_WritePin(ADC_OUT_GPIO_Port, ADC_OUT_Pin, GPIO_PIN_RESET);
	  Error_Handler();
  }

void HAL_ADC_ConvCpltCallback(ADC_HandleTypeDef* hadc) {
    if(hadc->Instance == ADC1) {

        if (HAL_ADC_Stop_DMA(&hadc1) != HAL_OK) {
        	Error_Handler();
        }
        HAL_GPIO_WritePin(ADC_OUT_GPIO_Port, ADC_OUT_Pin, GPIO_PIN_RESET);
        uint32_t sum_mv = 0;
        for (uint32_t i = 0; i < BATTERY_ARRAY_SIZE; i++) {
            aADCxConvertedData_Voltage_mVolt[i] = __ADC_CALC_DATA_VOLTAGE(VDDA_APPLI, aADCxConvertedData[i]);
            sum_mv += aADCxConvertedData_Voltage_mVolt[i];
        }

        uint16_t avg_mv = sum_mv / BATTERY_ARRAY_SIZE;

        ubDmaTransferStatus = 1;
    }
}

I put a breakpoint on ubDmaTransferStatus and see what it measures.

I use this same code on the nucleo board by shorting PC1 and PC0 with a wire and seeing normal results, around 3294-3296 mV.

This is not a hardware problem, I measured the output of the divider on the pin with an oscilloscope and saw around 2V. I also tested it on two devices.

I attach a project that works with nucleo, maybe this will help somehow.
Please help me.
Regards.

Step through the program in debug mode and see where it goes wrong.

It's a custom board - so you need to show the schematic.

You need to show the full schematic!

Hello. Thank you for your answer.
Could you please tell me what I should be looking at? I am already looking at the result in the HAL_ADC_ConvCpltCallback completion callback

Thanks for the reply.
This is the fragment of the schematic that deals with this issue. Everything else is fine, I've asked questions about this device in past threads, and everything worked just like the nucleo.

Clearly this is not the case.

My crystal ball says VREF+ is not fine.

Thanks for the reply!

It's internally connected to the VDDA.

It is not internally connected to VDDA, it is a distinct pin and must be powered.

That is the root of your issues.

Your options are:

• Modify the hardware to connect VDDA to VREF+.
• Use VREFBUF to supply a 2.5 V reference. This is the highest voltage it can supply.
