bit 2: GO/DONE: A/D Conversion Status bit
If ADON = 1
1 = A/D conversion in progress (setting this bit starts the A/D conversion)
0 = A/D conversion not in progress (This bit is automatically cleared by hardware when the A/D conversion
is complete)
bit 1: Unimplemented: Read as '0'
bit 0: ADON: A/D On bit
1 = A/D converter module is operating
0 = A/D converter module is shutoff and consumes no operating current
Note 1: A/D channels 5, 6, and 7 are implemented on the PIC16C74/74A/77 only.
13.0 ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL
CONVERTER (A/D) MODULE
The analog-to-digital (A/D) converter module has five
inputs for the PIC16C72/73/73A/76, and eight for the
PIC16C74/74A/77.
The A/D allows conversion of an analog input signal to
a corresponding 8-bit digital number (refer to Applica-
tion Note AN546 for use of A/D Converter). The output
of the sample and hold is the input into the converter,
which generates the result via successive approxima-
tion. The analog reference voltage is software select-
able to either the device’s positive supply voltage (V
DD)
or the voltage level on the RA3/AN3/V
REF pin.

The A/D converter has a unique feature of being able to
operate while the device is in SLEEP mode. To operate
in sleep, the A/D conversion clock must be derived from
the A/D’s internal RC oscillator.
The A/D module has three registers. These registers
are:
• A/D Result Register (ADRES)
• A/D Control Register 0 (ADCON0)
• A/D Control Register 1 (ADCON1)
The ADCON0 register, shown in Figure 13-1, controls
the operation of the A/D module. The ADCON1 regis-
ter, shown in Figure 13-2, configures the functions of
the port pins. The port pins can be configured as ana-
log inputs (RA3 can also be a voltage reference) or as
digital I/O.
