After the A/D module has been configured as desired,
the selected channel must be acquired before the
conversion can start. The analog input channels must
have their corresponding TRIS bits selected as inputs.
To determine acquisition time, see 
. After this acquisition
time has elapsed, the A/D conversion can be started.
An acquisition time can be programmed to occur
between setting the GO/DONE bit and the actual start
of the conversion.
To do an A/D conversion, follow these steps:
1.
Configure the A/D module:
• Configure the required ADC pins as analog 
pins (ANCON0, ANCON1 and ANCON2)
• Set the voltage reference (ADCON1)
• Select the A/D positive and negative input 
channels (ADCON0 and ADCON1)
• Select the A/D acquisition time (ADCON2)
• Select the A/D conversion clock (ADCON2)
• Turn on the A/D module (ADCON0)
2.
Configure the A/D interrupt (if desired):
• Clear the ADIF bit (PIR1<6>)
• Set the ADIE bit (PIE1<6>)
• Set the GIE bit (INTCON<7>)
3.
Wait the required acquisition time (if required).
4.
Start the conversion:
• Set the GO/DONE bit (ADCON0<1>)
5.
Wait for A/D conversion to complete, by either:
• Polling for the GO/DONE bit to be cleared
OR
• Waiting for the A/D interrupt
6.
Read A/D Result registers (ADRESH:ADRESL)
and, if required, clear bit, ADIF.
7.
For the next conversion, begin with Step 1 or 2,
as required.
The A/D conversion time per bit is defined as T
AD
.
Before the next acquisition starts, a minimum Wait
of 2 T
AD
 is required.
