In this video we'll see Analog to Digital Conversion (ADC) in MSP430 microcontroller with an example. First we'll see the concepts such as analog and digital signals, sampling period, quantization. After that we'll see how to configure the ADC10 module in the MSP430 with the help of registers. Then with the circuit that we'll build, we're going to convert the analog signal from a potentiometer to digital by the ADC10 module of the MSP430. By the C code that we'll write in Code Composer Studio, we'll compare the values seen in the multimeter and the serial output of the microcontroller.
