Weird IR reciever values

[silo_xtreme]

Hey All,

Anyone know why I would get values in the range of 65533 - 65535 on an ADC measurement?  I only seem to get this on my IR receiver from my ATXMEGA chip.

I've verified that we're not exceeding any electrical characteristics.

I have an interrupt that keeps sampling the ADC pin and updated a variable.

Could I be sampling too fast or something?

Try it with another IR sensor, or another microcontroller and make sure the problem isn't hardware related.

Heh.  Sorry for not updating this sooner.

The problem is actually cause because the Voltage was too small for the resolution selected on the ADC.

Thanks,

what type of ADC?

[silo_xtreme]

The Xmega128A1 ADC.

For some reason it was not resolving values less than 1.7 ma.

ma or mV?

Is it 10 bit ADC?
