+====================
+
+:ref:`Analog to Digital Conversion <adc>` (ADC) support.
+
+A common API for basic ADC functionality is available, but the
+characteristics of the ADC peripherals vary slightly across
+targets. To manage this, each target defines a small set of datatypes
+expressing its capabilities (namely :ref:`adc_extsel_event
+<adc-adc_extsel_event>`, :ref:`adc_smp_rate <adc-adc_smp_rate>`, and
+:ref:`adc_prescaler <adc-adc_prescaler>`).

+
+Devices
+-------
+
+The individual ADC peripherals have the following device struct.
+
+.. doxygenstruct:: adc_dev
+
+The available ADC peripherals vary by target. The complete list is
+``ADC1``, ``ADC2``, and ``ADC3``.
+
+.. doxygenvariable:: ADC1
+.. doxygenvariable:: ADC2
+.. doxygenvariable:: ADC3
+
+Functions
+---------
+
+Activation and Deactivation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+``adc_enable_single_swstart()`` is simple, portable function, which
+enables an ADC and sets it up for its basic usage: performing single
+conversions using :ref:`adc_read() <adc-adc_read>`.
+
+.. _adc-adc_enable_single_swstart:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_enable_single_swstart
+
+The precise software sequence used varies by target, so this is a good
+function to use if your program needs to support multiple MCUs. By
+default, Wirish calls ``adc_enable_single_swstart()`` on all available
+ADCs at ``init()`` time, so Wirish users don't have to call this
+function.
+
+There are several other lower-level routines used for activating and
+deactivating ADCs:
+
+.. _adc-adc_init:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_init
+.. _adc-adc_enable:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_enable
+.. _adc-adc_disable:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_disable
+.. _adc-adc_disable_all:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_disable_all
+
+ADC Conversion
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+``adc_read()`` is a simple function which starts conversion on a
+single ADC channel, blocks until it has completed, and returns the
+converted result. Don't use the ADC device for any other purpose while
+it's running.
+
+.. _adc-adc_read:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_read
+
+To use ``adc_read()``, the device must be configured appropriately.
+You can do this with :ref:`adc_enable_single_swstart()
+<adc-adc_enable_single_swstart>`.
+
+Note that for an ADC device to perform conversion on a GPIO input
+(which is the usual case; the notable exception being taking
+temperature reading), the pin must be configured for analog
+conversion. Do this with :ref:`adc_config_gpio()
+<adc-adc_config_gpio>`.
+
+Other routines helpful for ADC conversion:
+
+.. _adc-adc_set_reg_seqlen:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_set_reg_seqlen
+.. _adc-adc_set_extsel:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_set_extsel
+
+.. _adc-adc_extsel_event:
+
+The last of these, :ref:`adc_set_extsel() <adc-adc_set_extsel>`, takes
+a target-dependent ``adc_extsel_event`` argument.

+
+ADC Clock Prescaler
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+``adc_set_prescaler()`` is available for setting the prescaler which
+determines the common ADC clock rate. (Wirish sets a sensible default
+for this, so Wirish users ordinarily don't need to call this
+function.)
+
+.. warning:: Increasing the ADC clock rate does speed conversion time,
+ but the ADC peripherals have a maximum clock rate which must not be
+ exceeded. Make sure to configure your system and ADC clocks to
+ respect your device's maximum rate.
+
+.. _adc_adc_set_prescaler:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_set_prescaler
+
+.. _adc-adc_prescaler:
+
+ADC prescaler values are target-dependent.

+
+ADC Sample Time
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+You can control the sampling time (in ADC cycles) for an entire ADC
+device using ``adc_set_sample_rate()`` [#fchansamp]_. This function
+**only controls the sample rate**; the total conversion time is equal
+to the sample time plus an additional number of ADC cycles. Consult
+the reference manual for your chip for more details.
+
+.. warning:: Decreasing ADC sample time speeds conversion, but it also
+ decreases the maximum allowable impedance of the voltage source you
+ are measuring. If your voltage source has a high impedance
+ (e.g. you're measuring Vcc through a potentiometer), and your
+ sample time is too low, you will get inaccurate results. Consult
+ the datasheet for your target for more details.
+
+.. note:: Wirish sets a sensible default sample rate to allow for
+ high-impedance inputs at ``init()`` time, but Wirish users who know
+ what they're doing may want to call this function to speed up ADC
+ conversion.
+
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_set_sample_rate
+
+.. _adc-adc_smp_rate:
+
+The ``adc_smp_rate`` argument to :ref:`adc_set_sample_rate()
+<adc-adc_set_sample_rate>` is target-dependent.

+STM32F1 only
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The following routines are available only on STM32F1 targets.
+
+.. _adc-adc_set_exttrig:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_set_exttrig
+
+``adc_calibrate()`` performs calibration necessary on STM32F1 before
+using an ADC. Note that on STM32F1 targets,
+:ref:`adc_enable_single_swstart() <adc-adc_enable_single_swstart>`
+calls ``adc_calibrate()``, so there's no need to do it separately.
+
+.. _adc-adc_calibrate:
+.. doxygenfunction:: adc_calibrate
+
+Register Maps
+-------------
+
+Individual ADC peripherals have the following register map. The base
+pointers are ``ADC1_BASE``, ``ADC2_BASE``, and ``ADC3_BASE``.
+
+.. _adc-adc_reg_map:
+.. doxygenstruct:: adc_reg_map
+
+On **STM32F2 targets**, there is an additional common set of registers
+shared by all ADC peripherals. Its base pointer is
+``ADC_COMMON_BASE``.
