Using ADC module to read analog voltage between 0 to 5 volts DC

In this previous post, we introduced about using ADC module of PIC16F887. Generally, the voltage references VREF+ and VREF- are internally wired to VDD and VSS, respectively. PIC16F887 could be supplied in a range of 2.0 V to 5.5 V. Generally, the supply voltage is +5 V because most external devices work at +5 V.


Step size is an analog voltage per unit of the ADC resolution.

For VREF+ = +5 V (VDD) and the VREF- = 0 V (VSS), we get the step size of
Using ADC module to read analog voltage between 0 to 5 volts DC
For example if the ADC result equal to 512, the voltage is,

Similarly, we get find the digital result equivalent to the analog input voltage,

In this example, I use a POT to adjust the analog input voltage varies from 0 to +5 V. To find the voltage we can use the equations listed above. But we can use another short form as,
In the C program, we must use the floating point to measure the analog voltage.

from 0 to +5 V. PORTC and PORTD display the measuring voltage with
one floating point.
