It can be used as 8 single ended analog inputs or 4 differential input pairs. Power supply is 2.7 V to 5 V and its operating temperature is -40 °C to +85 °C. It has an SPI interface which can be operated in mode 0 or mode 3.

Using Analog to Digital Converter of AT89C51CC01 Microcontroller

Using AT89STK-06 starter kit, I have written a few C code to read an analog to digital converter (ADC) input of AT89C51CC01 which is an 8051 microcontroller. It has 8 multiplexed ADC inputs with 10 bit resolution. As an example, ADC input pin 7 which is connected to a variable resister is read.
