Energia:: MSP430 F5529 LaunchPad: Serial Printing on 9600 Baud Rate just the potentiometer value
As you noticed the MSP430F5529 has a 12 bit ADC therefore the range of the ADC value is from 0 to 4095. Based on your picture we can tell that the MSP-EXP430F5529LP is operating at 3.3 V and since the potentiometer also seems to be connected to the 3.3 V rail we expect the ADC value to represent the voltage level at the ADC pin, where 3.3 V is represented by a 4095. We can use the following equation to convert between the ADC value and the voltage it represents: voltage (mV) = ADCin*1000*3.3/4096. For example, and input of 1500 is equal to 1208 mV. Just be sure to use long variables instead of an int since the equation process can result in some large numbers.
I used Pin number 23
