int platform_adc_exists( unsigned id );

Checks if the platform has the hardware ADC specified as argument. Implemented in src/common.c, it uses the NUM_ADC macro that must be defined in the platform's platform_conf.h file (see here for details). For example:

#define NUM_ADC   1      // The platform has 1 ADC interface

Arguments: id - ADC interface ID

Returns: 1 if the ADC interface exists, 0 otherwise

u32 platform_adc_op( unsigned id, int op, u32 data );

• id - ADC channel ID
• op - the operation that must be executed. It can take any value from this enum, as follows:
  • PLATFORM_ADC_GET_MAXVAL: get the maximum conversion value the channel may supply (based on channel resolution)
  • PLATFORM_ADC_SET_SMOOTHING: sets the length of the moving average smoothing filter to data
  • PLATFORM_ADC_SET_BLOCKING: sets whether or not sample requests should block, waiting for additional samples
  • PLATFORM_ADC_IS_DONE: checks whether sampling has completed
  • PLATFORM_ADC_OP_SET_TIMER: selects a timer to control sampling frequency
  • PLATFORM_ADC_OP_SET_CLOCK: set the frequency of sample acquisition
• data - when used with op == PLATFORM_ADC_SET_SMOOTHING, specifies the length of the moving average filter (must be a power of 2). If it is 1, filter is disabled.
• data - when used with op == PLATFORM_ADC_SET_BLOCKING, specifies whether or not sample requests block. If 1, requests will block until enough samples are available or sampling has ended. If 0, requests will return immediately with up to the number of samples requested.
• data - when used with op == PLATFORM_ADC_OP_SET_TIMER, specifies the timer to use to control sampling frequency.
• data - when used with op == PLATFORM_ADC_OP_SET_CLOCK, specifies the frequency of sample collection in Hz (number of samples per second). If 0, timer is not used and samples are acquired as quickly as possible.

Returns:

• the maximum possible conversion value when op == PLATFORM_ADC_GET_MAXVAL
• whether or not sampling has completed (1: yes, 0: no) when op == PLATFORM_ADC_IS_DONE. This will return 1 (yes), if no samples have been requested.
• the actual frequency of acquisition that will be used when op == PLATFORM_ADC_OP_SET_CLOCK
• irellevant for other operations
