32.2.1 Starting a Conversion

To enable the ADC module, the ON bit in the ADCON0 register must be set to a ‘1’. A conversion may be started by any of the following:

  • Software setting the GO bit to ‘1
  • An external trigger (source selected by ADACT32.8.21 ADACT)
  • A Continuous-mode retrigger (see the “Continuous Sampling mode” section)

.

Important: The GO bit must not be set in the same instruction that turns on the ADC.
