PIC18F87J90 FAMILY
21.7 A/D Converter Calibration
The A/D Converter, in the PIC18F87J90 family of
devices, includes a self-calibration feature which com-
pensates for any offset generated within the module.
The calibration process is automated and is initiated by
setting the ADCAL bit (ADCON0<7>). The next time
the GO/DONE bit is set, the module will perform a
“dummy” conversion (that is, with reading none of the
input channels) and store the resulting value internally
to compensate for the offset. Thus, subsequent offsets
will be compensated.
The calibration process assumes that the device is in a
relatively steady-state operating condition. If A/D
calibration is used, it should be performed after each
device Reset or if there are other major changes in
operating conditions.
21.8 Operation in Power-Managed
Modes
The selection of the automatic acquisition time and A/D
conversion clock is determined, in part, by the clock
source and frequency while in a power-managed
mode.
If the A/D is expected to operate while the device is in
a power-managed mode, the ACQT<2:0> and
ADCS<2:0> bits in ADCON2 should be updated in
accordance with the power-managed mode clock that
will be used. After the power-managed mode is entered
(either of the power-managed Run modes), an A/D
acquisition or conversion may be started. Once an
acquisition or conversion is started, the device should
continue to be clocked by the same power-managed
mode clock source until the conversion has been com-
pleted. If desired, the device may be placed into the
corresponding power-managed Idle mode during the
conversion.
If the power-managed mode clock frequency is less
than 1 MHz, the A/D RC clock source should be
selected.
Operation in Sleep mode requires the A/D RC clock to
be selected. If bits, ACQT<2:0>, are set to ‘000’ and a
conversion is started, the conversion will be delayed
one instruction cycle to allow execution of the SLEEP
instruction and entry to Sleep mode. The IDLEN and
SCSx bits in the OSCCON register must have already
been cleared prior to starting the conversion.

Legend:
Note 1:
— = unimplemented, read as ‘0’. Shaded cells are not used for A/D conversion.
RA<7:6> and their associated latch and direction bits are configured as port pins only when the internal
oscillator is selected as the default clock source (FOSC2 Configuration bit = 0); otherwise, they are
disabled and these bits read as ‘0’.
