Re: Analog-to-Digital Converter Code

Am I going to have to modify your code (maybe add an array of update_counts, with each index correspondent with the channel's freshness of data?) to allow this functionality, or is it already there and I'm just not seeing it?
The update flag only gets incremented after all enabled ADC channels have been refreshed. You can get less latency (if that's what you're after) by doing the modification you described, or by just moving the gyro to the last enabled channel and continue using Get_ADC_Result_Count().
