Analog to Digital Converter (ADC)¶

ADC Channels¶

The ESP32-S2 integrates 2 SAR (Successive Approximation Register) ADCs, supporting a total of 20 measurement channels (analog enabled pins).

These channels are supported:

ADC1:

10 channels: GPIO1 - GPIO10

ADC2:

10 channels: GPIO11 - GPIO20

ADC Attenuation¶

Vref is the reference voltage used internally by ESP32-S2 ADCs for measuring the input voltage. The ESP32-S2 ADCs can measure analog voltages from 0 V to Vref. Among different chips, the Vref varies, the median is 1.1 V. In order to convert voltages larger than Vref, input voltages can be attenuated before being input to the ADCs. There are 4 available attenuation options, the higher the attenuation is, the higher the measurable input voltage could be.

Attenuation	Measurable input voltage range
`ADC_ATTEN_DB_0`	0 mV ~ 750 mV
`ADC_ATTEN_DB_2_5`	0 mV ~ 1050 mV
`ADC_ATTEN_DB_6`	0 mV ~ 1300 mV
`ADC_ATTEN_DB_11`	0 mV ~ 2500 mV

ADC Conversion¶

An ADC conversion is to convert the input analog voltage to a digital value. The ADC conversion results provided by the ADC driver APIs are raw data. Resolution of ESP32-S2 ADC raw results under Single Read mode is 12-bit.

adc1_get_raw()
adc2_get_raw()

To calculate the voltage based on the ADC raw results, this formula can be used:

Vout = Dout * Vmax / Dmax       (1)

where:

Vout	Digital output result, standing for the voltage.
Dout	ADC raw digital reading result.
Vmax	Maximum measurable input analog voltage, see ADC Attenuation.
Dmax	Maximum of the output ADC raw digital reading result, which is 8191 under Single Read mode, 4095 under Continuous Read mode.

For boards with eFuse ADC calibration bits, esp_adc_cal_raw_to_voltage() can be used to get the calibrated conversion results. These results stand for the actual voltage (in mV). No need to transform these data via the formula (1). If ADC calibration APIs are used on boards without eFuse ADC calibration bits, warnings will be generated. See ADC Calibration.

ADC Limitations¶

注解

Since the ADC2 module is also used by the Wi-Fi, reading operation of adc2_get_raw() may fail between esp_wifi_start() and esp_wifi_stop(). Use the return code to see whether the reading is successful.

Driver Usage¶

Both of the ADC units support single read mode, which is suitable for low-frequency sampling operations.

注解

ADC readings from a pin not connected to any signal are random.

ADC Single Read mode¶

The ADC should be configured before reading is taken.

For ADC1, configure desired precision and attenuation by calling functions adc1_config_width() and adc1_config_channel_atten().

For ADC2, configure the attenuation by adc2_config_channel_atten(). The reading width of ADC2 is configured every time you take the reading.

Attenuation configuration is done per channel, see adc1_channel_t and adc2_channel_t, set as a parameter of above functions.

Then it is possible to read ADC conversion result with adc1_get_raw() and adc2_get_raw(). Reading width of ADC2 should be set as a parameter of adc2_get_raw() instead of in the configuration functions.

Single Read mode ADC example can be found in peripherals/adc/single_read directory of ESP-IDF examples.

This API provides convenient way to configure ADC1 for reading from ULP. To do so, call function adc1_ulp_enable() and then set precision and attenuation as discussed above.

There is another specific function adc_vref_to_gpio() used to route internal reference voltage to a GPIO pin. It comes handy to calibrate ADC reading and this is discussed in section ADC Calibration.

注解

See ADC Limitations for the limitation of using ADC single read mode.

Minimizing Noise¶

The ESP32-S2 ADC can be sensitive to noise leading to large discrepancies in ADC readings. Depending on the usage scenario, users may connect a bypass capacitor (e.g. a 100 nF ceramic capacitor) to the ADC input pad in use, to minimize noise. Besides, multisampling may also be used to further mitigate the effects of noise.

ADC Calibration¶

The esp_adc_cal/include/esp_adc_cal.h API provides functions to correct for differences in measured voltages caused by variation of ADC reference voltages (Vref) between chips. Per design the ADC reference voltage is 1100 mV, however the true reference voltage can range from 1000 mV to 1200 mV amongst different ESP32-S2s.

Graph illustrating effect of differing reference voltages on the ADC voltage curve.¶

Correcting ADC readings using this API involves characterizing one of the ADCs at a given attenuation to obtain a characteristics curve (ADC-Voltage curve) that takes into account the difference in ADC reference voltage. The characteristics curve is in the form of y = coeff_a * x + coeff_b and is used to convert ADC readings to voltages in mV. Calculation of the characteristics curve is based on calibration values which can be stored in eFuse or provided by the user.

Calibration Values¶

Calibration values are used to generate characteristic curves that account for the variation of ADC reference voltage of a particular ESP32-S2 chip. There are currently 1 source(s) of calibration values on ESP32-S2. The availability of these calibration values will depend on the type and production date of the ESP32-S2 chip/module.

eFuse Two Point values calibrates the ADC output at two different voltages. This value is measured and burned into eFuse BLOCK0 during factory calibration on newly manufactured ESP32-S2 chips and modules. If you would like to purchase chips or modules with calibration, double check with distributor or Espressif (sales@espressif.com) directly.

You can verify if eFuse Two Point is present by running the espefuse.py tool with adc_info parameter

$IDF_PATH/components/esptool_py/esptool/espefuse.py --port /dev/ttyUSB0 adc_info

Replace /dev/ttyUSB0 with ESP32-S2 board’s port name.

Application Extensions¶

For a full example see esp-idf: peripherals/adc/single_read

Characterizing an ADC at a particular attenuation:

#include "driver/adc.h"
#include "esp_adc_cal.h"

...

    //Characterize ADC at particular atten
    esp_adc_cal_characteristics_t *adc_chars = calloc(1, sizeof(esp_adc_cal_characteristics_t));
    esp_adc_cal_value_t val_type = esp_adc_cal_characterize(unit, atten, ADC_WIDTH_BIT_12, DEFAULT_VREF, adc_chars);
    //Check type of calibration value used to characterize ADC
    if (val_type == ESP_ADC_CAL_VAL_EFUSE_VREF) {
        printf("eFuse Vref");
    } else if (val_type == ESP_ADC_CAL_VAL_EFUSE_TP) {
        printf("Two Point");
    } else {
        printf("Default");
    }

Reading an ADC then converting the reading to a voltage:

#include "driver/adc.h"
#include "esp_adc_cal.h"

...
    uint32_t reading =  adc1_get_raw(ADC1_CHANNEL_5);
    uint32_t voltage = esp_adc_cal_raw_to_voltage(reading, adc_chars);

Routing ADC reference voltage to GPIO, so it can be manually measured (for Default Vref):

#include "driver/adc.h"

...

    esp_err_t status = adc_vref_to_gpio(ADC_UNIT_1, GPIO_NUM_25);
    if (status == ESP_OK) {
        printf("v_ref routed to GPIO\n");
    } else {
        printf("failed to route v_ref\n");
    }

GPIO Lookup Macros¶

There are macros available to specify the GPIO number of a ADC channel, or vice versa. e.g.

ADC1_CHANNEL_0_GPIO_NUM is the GPIO number of ADC1 channel 0.
ADC1_GPIOn_CHANNEL is the ADC1 channel number of GPIO n.

+----------+-------------+-----------------+

For maximum accuracy, use the ADC calibration APIs and measure voltages within these recommended ranges.

Note

For any given channel, this function must be called before the first time adc1_get_raw() is called for that channel.

Note

This function can be called multiple times to configure multiple ADC channels simultaneously. You may call adc1_get_raw() only after configuring a channel.

Return

ESP_OK success
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG Parameter error

Parameters

channel: ADC1 channel to configure
atten: Attenuation level

esp_err_t adc1_config_width(adc_bits_width_t width_bit)¶

Configure ADC1 capture width, meanwhile enable output invert for ADC1. The configuration is for all channels of ADC1.

Return

ESP_OK success
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG Parameter error

Parameters

width_bit: Bit capture width for ADC1

int adc1_get_raw(adc1_channel_t channel)¶

Take an ADC1 reading from a single channel.

Note

ESP32: When the power switch of SARADC1, SARADC2, HALL sensor and AMP sensor is turned on, the input of GPIO36 and GPIO39 will be pulled down for about 80ns. When enabling power for any of these peripherals, ignore input from GPIO36 and GPIO39. Please refer to section 3.11 of ‘ECO_and_Workarounds_for_Bugs_in_ESP32’ for the description of this issue. As a workaround, call adc_power_acquire() in the app. This will result in higher power consumption (by ~1mA), but will remove the glitches on GPIO36 and GPIO39.

Note

Call adc1_config_width() before the first time this function is called.

Note

For any given channel, adc1_config_channel_atten(channel) must be called before the first time this function is called. Configuring a new channel does not prevent a previously configured channel from being read.

Return

-1: Parameter error
Other: ADC1 channel reading.

Parameters

channel: ADC1 channel to read

esp_err_t adc_set_data_inv(adc_unit_t adc_unit, bool inv_en)¶

This function reconfigures ADC1 to be controlled by the ULP. Effect of this function can be reverted using adc1_get_raw() function.

Note that adc1_config_channel_atten, adc1_config_width() functions need to be called to configure ADC1 channels, before ADC1 is used by the ULP.

esp_err_t adc2_pad_get_io_num(adc2_channel_t channel, gpio_num_t *gpio_num)¶

Get the GPIO number of a specific ADC2 channel.

Return

ESP_OK if success

esp_err_t adc2_get_raw(adc2_channel_t channel, adc_bits_width_t width_bit, int *raw_out)¶

Take an ADC2 reading on a single channel.

Note

ESP32: When the power switch of SARADC1, SARADC2, HALL sensor and AMP sensor is turned on, the input of GPIO36 and GPIO39 will be pulled down for about 80ns. When enabling power for any of these peripherals, ignore input from GPIO36 and GPIO39. Please refer to section 3.11 of ‘ECO_and_Workarounds_for_Bugs_in_ESP32’ for the description of this issue. As a workaround, call adc_power_acquire() in the app. This will result in higher power consumption (by ~1mA), but will remove the glitches on GPIO36 and GPIO39.

Note

ESP32: For a given channel, adc2_config_channel_atten() must be called before the first time this function is called. If Wi-Fi is started via esp_wifi_start(), this function will always fail with ESP_ERR_TIMEOUT.
