27.7 ADC Conversion Result

After the conversion is complete (ADCSRA.ADIF is set), the conversion result can be found in the ADC Result Registers (ADCL, ADCH).

For single ended conversion, the result is

ADC = \frac{V_{IN} \cdot 1024}{V_{REF}}

where V_IN is the voltage on the selected input pin, and V_REF the selected voltage reference (see also descriptions of ADMUX.REFSn and ADMUX.MUX). 0x000 represents analog ground, and 0x3FF represents the selected reference voltage minus one LSB.
