bitbanging the ADS7822 12 bit serial ADC
PostPosted: Wed Feb 27, 2008 8:12 am     Reply with quote

Having puzzled out this chip's weirdness, I thought others might find it useful. Seems to work fine. Loosely based on the ads8390 example code, but the 7822 operates differently.

Code:

#define ADS7822_CLK  PIN_B4
#define ADS7822_DOUT PIN_B1
#define ADS7822_CS   PIN_B3

void init_ext_adc()
{
        output_high(ADS7822_CS);
        output_high(ADS7822_CLK);
}

long read_ext_adc()
{
        int i;
        long data;

        data=0;
        output_low(ADS7822_CLK); // IMPORTANT!
        output_low(ADS7822_CS);  // CLK *must* drop just _before_ CS
        delay_us(1);
        output_high(ADS7822_CLK); // Start the conversion,
        delay_us(1);
        output_low(ADS7822_CLK);  // and throw away the next
        delay_us(1);
        output_high(ADS7822_CLK); // three clocks, then you
        delay_us(1);
        output_low(ADS7822_CLK);  // can collect the output
        delay_us(1);
        delay_us(1);

        for(i=0;i<12;++i) {           // Now we shift out valid data.
                output_low(ADS7822_CLK);
                delay_us(1);
                shift_left(&data,2,input(ADS7822_DOUT));
                output_high(ADS7822_CLK);
                delay_us(1);
        }
        output_high(ADS7822_CS);
        return(data);
}

Hi, epv, I tested this code using a PIC16F876 to read the ads7822, and it worked but I found a problem. The value received was half what it should be. Looking at your code and ads7822's datasheet I found that it lacked a rising edge, so I added that pulse and now the code worked well, got the expected value by reading the ADC. This works. The code is:

Code:

#define ADS7822_CLK  PIN_B0
#define ADS7822_DOUT PIN_B1
#define ADS7822_CS   PIN_B2

void init_ext_adc()
{
        output_high(ADS7822_CS);
        output_high(ADS7822_CLK);
}

long read_ext_adc()
{
        int i;
        long data;

        data=0;
        output_low(ADS7822_CLK); // IMPORTANT!
        output_low(ADS7822_CS);  // CLK *must* drop just _before_ CS
        delay_us(1);
        output_high(ADS7822_CLK); // Start the conversion,
        delay_us(1);
        output_low(ADS7822_CLK);  // primer flanco descendente
        delay_us(1);
        output_high(ADS7822_CLK);
        delay_us(1);
        output_low(ADS7822_CLK);  // segundo flanco descendente (bit nulo)
        delay_us(1);
        output_high(ADS7822_CLK); // <--- pulso que faltaba
        delay_us(1);              // en el próximo flanco descendente
                                  //se obtiene el primer bit (msb)
        for(i=0;i<12;++i) {           // Now we shift out valid data.
                output_low(ADS7822_CLK);
                delay_us(1);
                shift_left(&data,2,input(ADS7822_DOUT));
                output_high(ADS7822_CLK);
                delay_us(1);
        }
        output_high(ADS7822_CS);
        return(data);
}


Regards, Enzo.
