Flowcode v10 PIC16F1779 – ADC shows 12-bit resolution, but datasheet says 10-bit

Post by Sasi »

Hi all,
I'm working on an ongoing project using the PIC16F1779 MCU.
I intend to use its ADC peripheral, and I have a question regarding its configuration.
In the ADC Component Macro properties window, I see a resolution of 12 bits, and the ADC result I receive also appears to reflect a 12-bit resolution. However, according to the datasheet, this MCU only has a 10-bit ADC.
The value returned by the converter seems realistic when interpreted as a 12-bit result.

Is this expected behavior, or is something misconfigured?
Regards,
Sasi
