Using adc dwm1001

Hi, I’m try use the adc from dwm1001.
I see in the datasheet of dwm1001, the availables pin’s from adc usage are the GPIO 31 and GPIO 30 that match respectively with AIN7 and AIN6 adc pins from nr52832. I compile this example code for SAADC usage from nordic web page:

#include <stdbool.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include “nrf.h”
#include “nrf_drv_saadc.h”
#include “nrf_drv_ppi.h”
#include “nrf_drv_timer.h”
#include “boards.h”
#include “app_error.h”
#include “nrf_delay.h”
#include “app_util_platform.h”
#include <string.h>

#define NRF_LOG_MODULE_NAME “APP”
#include “nrf_log.h”
#include “nrf_log_ctrl.h”

#define SAMPLES_IN_BUFFER 5
volatile uint8_t state = 1;

static const nrf_drv_timer_t m_timer = NRF_DRV_TIMER_INSTANCE(0);
static nrf_saadc_value_t m_buffer_pool[2][SAMPLES_IN_BUFFER];
static nrf_ppi_channel_t m_ppi_channel;
static uint32_t m_adc_evt_counter;

void timer_handler(nrf_timer_event_t event_type, void * p_context)
{

}

void saadc_sampling_event_init(void)
{
ret_code_t err_code;

err_code = nrf_drv_ppi_init();
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

nrf_drv_timer_config_t timer_cfg = NRF_DRV_TIMER_DEFAULT_CONFIG;
timer_cfg.bit_width = NRF_TIMER_BIT_WIDTH_32;
err_code = nrf_drv_timer_init(&m_timer, &timer_cfg, timer_handler);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

/* setup m_timer for compare event every 400ms */
uint32_t ticks = nrf_drv_timer_ms_to_ticks(&m_timer, 400);
nrf_drv_timer_extended_compare(&m_timer,
                               NRF_TIMER_CC_CHANNEL0,
                               ticks,

                               false);
nrf_drv_timer_enable(&m_timer);

uint32_t timer_compare_event_addr = nrf_drv_timer_compare_event_address_get(&m_timer,
                                                                            NRF_TIMER_CC_CHANNEL0);
uint32_t saadc_sample_task_addr   = nrf_drv_saadc_sample_task_get();

/* setup ppi channel so that timer compare event is triggering sample task in SAADC */
err_code = nrf_drv_ppi_channel_alloc(&m_ppi_channel);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

err_code = nrf_drv_ppi_channel_assign(m_ppi_channel,
                                      timer_compare_event_addr,
                                      saadc_sample_task_addr);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

}

void saadc_sampling_event_enable(void)
{
ret_code_t err_code = nrf_drv_ppi_channel_enable(m_ppi_channel);

APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

}

void saadc_callback(nrf_drv_saadc_evt_t const * p_event)
{
int vec[5];
if (p_event->type == NRF_DRV_SAADC_EVT_DONE)
{
ret_code_t err_code;

    err_code = nrf_drv_saadc_buffer_convert(p_event->data.done.p_buffer, SAMPLES_IN_BUFFER);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    int i;
    NRF_LOG_INFO("ADC event number: %d\r\n", (int)m_adc_evt_counter);

    for (i = 0; i < SAMPLES_IN_BUFFER; i++)
    {
        NRF_LOG_INFO("%d\r\n", p_event->data.done.p_buffer[i]);
					vec[i]=p_event->data.done.p_buffer[i];
    }
    m_adc_evt_counter++;
}

}

void saadc_init(void)
{
ret_code_t err_code;
nrf_saadc_channel_config_t channel_config =NRF_DRV_SAADC_DEFAULT_CHANNEL_CONFIG_SE(nrf_drv_saadc_gpio_to_ain(7));
//NRF_DRV_SAADC_DEFAULT_CHANNEL_CONFIG_SE(NRF_SAADC_INPUT_VDD);

err_code = nrf_drv_saadc_channel_init(0, &channel_config);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

err_code = nrf_drv_saadc_buffer_convert(m_buffer_pool[0], SAMPLES_IN_BUFFER);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

err_code = nrf_drv_saadc_buffer_convert(m_buffer_pool[1], SAMPLES_IN_BUFFER);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

}

/**

  • @brief Function for main application entry.
    */
    int main(void)
    {
    uint32_t err_code = NRF_LOG_INIT(NULL);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    NRF_LOG_INFO(“SAADC HAL simple example.\r\n”);
    saadc_init();
    saadc_sampling_event_init();
    saadc_sampling_event_enable();

    while (1)
    {
    __WFE();
    NRF_LOG_FLUSH();
    }
    }

but I always get the same values ​​even if I change the voltage on the pins.

Is it necessary to unsolder the module DWM1001 from DEV board to this work?

Best Regards

Halo CostaT

have you solve this- reading the ADC Value? could you share the steps?

Thankyou,
Best wishes.

Is there really noone who made this work yet?
