Analog to Digital Converter (ADC)¶
ADC Channels¶
The ESP32-S3 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-S3 ADCs for measuring the input voltage. The ESP32-S3 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 |
---|---|
|
0 mV ~ 950 mV |
|
0 mV ~ 1250 mV |
|
0 mV ~ 1750 mV |
|
0 mV ~ 3100 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-S3 ADC raw results under Single Read mode is 12-bit.
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 4095 under Single Read mode, 8191 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 betweenesp_wifi_start()
andesp_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()
andadc1_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.
注解
See ADC Limitations for the limitation of using ADC single read mode.
Minimizing Noise¶
The ESP32-S3 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¶
ESP32-S3 ADC Calibration contains 2 steps: Hardware Calibration and Software Calibration.
Hardware Calibration¶
Based on series of comparisons with the reference voltage, ESP32-S3 ADC determines each bit of the output digital result. Per design the ESP32-S3 ADC reference voltage is 1100 mV, however the true reference voltage can range from 1000 mV to 1200 mV among different chips. To minimize this difference, hardware calibration is introduced.
Hardware calibration contains 2 steps:
Set an auto-calibration parameter of bandgap voltage reference. In this way, the difference mentioned above can be minimized.
Correct the offset of the ADC Vin-Dout characteristics. ADC characteristics is generally a function: f(x) = A * x + B, where B is the offset.
An uncalibrated ADC characteristics is as follows:
The offset in the uncalibrated characteristics is significant. Step 2 is to correct the offset to 0.
After hardware calibration, the ADC characteristics would be like:
Hardware calibration is done internally by the ADC driver. The consequent results are raw data. A transformation is needed to get the final result, see ADC Conversion.
Software Calibration¶
To convert ADC raw data to calibrated digital data, following steps should be followed:
Check the eFuse to know if the software calibration is supported via
esp_adc_cal_check_efuse()
.Calculate the ADC calibration characteristics via
esp_adc_cal_characterize()
. The ADC software calibration characteristics are per ADC module and per attenuation. For example, characteristics of ADC1 channel 0 under 11 dB attenuation are the same as characteristics of ADC1 channel 2 under 11 dB attenuation. But characteristics of ADC1 channel 0 under 11 dB attenuation are different with characteristics of ADC2 channel 0 under 11 dB attenuation. Also characteristics of ADC1 channel 0 under 11 dB attenuation are different with characteristics of ADC1 channel 0 under 6 dB attenuation.Get the actual voltage value via
esp_adc_cal_raw_to_voltage()
.
After software calibration, the ADC characteristics would be like:
The results provided by the ADC calibration APIs indicate the actual voltage values. ADC software calibration example can be found in peripherals/adc/single_read directory of ESP-IDF examples.
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.

ADC Calibration¶
Header File¶
Functions¶
-
esp_err_t
esp_adc_cal_check_efuse
(esp_adc_cal_value_t value_type)¶ Checks if ADC calibration values are burned into eFuse.
This function checks if ADC reference voltage or Two Point values have been burned to the eFuse of the current ESP32
- Note
in ESP32S2, only ESP_ADC_CAL_VAL_EFUSE_TP is supported. Some old ESP32S2s do not support this, either. In which case you have to calibrate it manually, possibly by performing your own two-point calibration on the chip.
- Return
ESP_OK: The calibration mode is supported in eFuse
ESP_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED: Error, eFuse values are not burned
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Error, invalid argument (ESP_ADC_CAL_VAL_DEFAULT_VREF)
- Parameters
value_type
: Type of calibration value (ESP_ADC_CAL_VAL_EFUSE_VREF or ESP_ADC_CAL_VAL_EFUSE_TP)
-
esp_adc_cal_value_t
esp_adc_cal_characterize
(adc_unit_t adc_num, adc_atten_t atten, adc_bits_width_t bit_width, uint32_t default_vref, esp_adc_cal_characteristics_t *chars)¶ Characterize an ADC at a particular attenuation.
This function will characterize the ADC at a particular attenuation and generate the ADC-Voltage curve in the form of [y = coeff_a * x + coeff_b]. Characterization can be based on Two Point values, eFuse Vref, or default Vref and the calibration values will be prioritized in that order.
- Note
For ESP32, Two Point values and eFuse Vref calibration can be enabled/disabled using menuconfig. For ESP32s2, only Two Point values calibration and only ADC_WIDTH_BIT_13 is supported. The parameter default_vref is unused.
- Return
ESP_ADC_CAL_VAL_EFUSE_VREF: eFuse Vref used for characterization
ESP_ADC_CAL_VAL_EFUSE_TP: Two Point value used for characterization (only in Linear Mode)
ESP_ADC_CAL_VAL_DEFAULT_VREF: Default Vref used for characterization
- Parameters
[in] adc_num
: ADC to characterize (ADC_UNIT_1 or ADC_UNIT_2)[in] atten
: Attenuation to characterize[in] bit_width
: Bit width configuration of ADC[in] default_vref
: Default ADC reference voltage in mV (Only in ESP32, used if eFuse values is not available)[out] chars
: Pointer to empty structure used to store ADC characteristics
-
uint32_t
esp_adc_cal_raw_to_voltage
(uint32_t adc_reading, const esp_adc_cal_characteristics_t *chars)¶ Convert an ADC reading to voltage in mV.
This function converts an ADC reading to a voltage in mV based on the ADC’s characteristics.
- Note
Characteristics structure must be initialized before this function is called (call esp_adc_cal_characterize())
- Return
Voltage in mV
- Parameters
[in] adc_reading
: ADC reading[in] chars
: Pointer to initialized structure containing ADC characteristics
-
esp_err_t
esp_adc_cal_get_voltage
(adc_channel_t channel, const esp_adc_cal_characteristics_t *chars, uint32_t *voltage)¶ Reads an ADC and converts the reading to a voltage in mV.
This function reads an ADC then converts the raw reading to a voltage in mV based on the characteristics provided. The ADC that is read is also determined by the characteristics.
- Note
The Characteristics structure must be initialized before this function is called (call esp_adc_cal_characterize())
- Return
ESP_OK: ADC read and converted to mV
ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Error due to invalid arguments
ESP_ERR_INVALID_STATE: Reading result is invalid. Try to read again.
- Parameters
[in] channel
: ADC Channel to read[in] chars
: Pointer to initialized ADC characteristics structure[out] voltage
: Pointer to store converted voltage
