ADC SAR High Detection Interrupt

[Anonymous]

Hello guys,

   

I'm using the ADC SAR Seq on my PSOC 4100 series to detect a high current. I want the interrupt to trigger when the ADC senses a voltage above its limit. I don't want the interrupt to continuously trigger to check the ADC registers(which it's currently doing). Below is the interrupt routine:

   

CY_ISR(ADC_LIMIT_ISR){
    
    uint32 intr_status;
    intr_status = ADC1_SAR_INTR_MASKED_REG;

   

    windowFlag = ADC1_SAR_RANGE_INTR_MASKED_REG;        // Read range interrupt status and raise the flag (High Limit)  
        
    if (windowFlag){
            ADCMode = 1;
            OutputsOFF();
    }
      
    ADC1_SAR_RANGE_INTR_REG = windowFlag;               // Clear range detect status
    ADC1_SAR_INTR_REG = intr_status;                    // Clear handled interrupt 
}

   

Thanks,

Why not use a comparator instead.  Set the trigger just over the max voltage you are looking for.  Then it will fire and give you a digital signal.

PRoC BLE does not have a comparator, please answer this question.
