Does HAL have constants for the total number of ADC channels?

[Nick Alexeev]

Folks,

Does HAL have constants for the total number of ADC channels? 

I want to iterate through all channels and make sure that all of them are disabled.  Here's the code I have in mind. 

 

 ADC_ChannelConfTypeDef sConfig = {0};
 sConfig.Rank = ADC_RANK_NONE; // disable all channels

 const uint8_t nChannels = 19; // Does HAL already have a constant for the number of ADC channels?
 for (uint32_t iChannel = 0; iChannel < nChannels; ++iChannel)
 {
 sConfig.Channel = iChannel;
 if (HAL_ADC_ConfigChannel(hadc, &sConfig) != HAL_OK) Error_Handler();
 }

 

I'm declaring my own constant nChannels = 19 .  The number 19 came from the STM32G4 family reference manual.  I wonder if HAL already has a constant for that.

Best regards,
- Nick

Hello @Nick Alexeev 

according to what I know, there is not such a definition since the HAL driver is implemented for different MCU of the same family (G4 for your case). The number of channels and the repartition of channels may change from an MCU to another.

I've got another question related to reconfiguring the ADC channels at runtime.  How can I disable channels which aren't used at the given time?

In one part of my program ADC2 is reading channels 1,2,4 in scan mode with DMA.  In another part of the program ADC2 is reading channel 9.

I saw code examples which used ADC_RANK_NONE to disable channels [if I understood it correctly].  But the HAL for my microcontroller (STM32G4) doesn't define ADC_RANK_NONE .
