# PIC18F47Q10 ADCC Internal Temperature Conversion Configuration Example

The PIC18F47Q10 features one 10-bit ADCC module.
In this demo, the ADCC peripheral is used to read a value from the internal temperature sensor.

## Hardware Used
- PIC18F47Q10 Curiosity Nano [(DM182029)](https://www.microchip.com/Developmenttools/ProductDetails/DM182029)

## Setup
The PIC18F47Q10 Curiosity Nano Development Board is used as test platform.

## Operation:
1. Connect the board to the PC.

2. Open the *pic18f47q10-cnano-adcc-temperature-mcc.X* project in MPLAB® X IDE.

3. Set *pic18f47q10-cnano-adcc-temperature-mcc* project as main project. Right click on the project in the *Projects* tab and click *Set as Main Project*:

4. Select the *PIC18F47Q10 Curiosity Nano* in the *Hardware Tool* section of the project settings:
  - Right click on the project and click *Properties*;
  - Select the *PIC18F47Q10 Curiosity Nano* (click on the SN) in the *Hardware Tool* tab and then click *OK*:

7. Add *celsiusValue* variable to the *Variables window*: right click on the `celsiusValue` variable in main.c file and click *New Watch*:
<br><img src="images/watch.PNG" width="600">


The ADC value of the temperature will be read only once, before the program gets to the infinite loop. The value of `adcVal` will reflect the temperature of the device. The values of `celsiusValue` and `fahrenheitValue` give the temperature in their respective units.
