/**
 * @defgroup ADC ADC Driver
 * @brief Generic ADC Driver.
 * @details This module implements a generic ADC (Analog to Digital Converter)
 *          driver supporting a variety of buffer and conversion modes.
 * @pre     In order to use the ADC driver the @p HAL_USE_ADC option
 *          must be enabled in @p halconf.h.
 *
 * @section adc_1 Driver State Machine
 * The driver implements a state machine internally, not all the driver
 * functionalities can be used in any moment, any transition not explicitly
 * shown in the following diagram has to be considered an error and shall
 * be captured by an assertion (if enabled).

 * @section adc_2 ADC Operations
 * The ADC driver is quite complex, an explanation of the terminology and of
 * the operational details follows.
 *
 * @subsection adc_2_1 ADC Conversion Groups
 * The @p ADCConversionGroup is the objects that specifies a physical
 * conversion operation. This structure contains some standard fields and
 * several implementation-dependent fields.<br>
 * The standard fields define the CG mode, the number of channels belonging
 * to the CG and the optional callbacks.<br>
 * The implementation-dependent fields specify the physical ADC operation
 * mode, the analog channels belonging to the group and any other
 * implementation-specific setting. Usually the extra fields just mirror
 * the physical ADC registers, please refer to the vendor's MCU Reference
 * Manual for details about the available settings. Details are also available
 * into the documentation of the ADC low level drivers and in the various
 * sample applications.
 *
 * @subsection adc_2_2 ADC Conversion Modes
 * The driver supports several conversion modes:
 * - <b>One Shot</b>, the driver performs a single group conversion then stops.
 * - <b>Linear Buffer</b>, the driver performs a series of group conversions
 *   then stops. This mode is like a one shot conversion repeated N times,
 *   the buffer pointer increases after each conversion. The buffer is
 *   organized as an S(CG)*N samples matrix, when S(CG) is the conversion
 *   group size (number of channels) and N is the buffer depth (number of
 *   repeated conversions).
 * - <b>Circular Buffer</b>, much like the linear mode but the operation does
 *   not stop when the buffer is filled, it is automatically restarted
 *   with the buffer pointer wrapping back to the buffer base.
 * .
 * @subsection adc_2_3 ADC Callbacks
 * The driver is able to invoke callbacks during the conversion process. A
 * callback is invoked when the operation has been completed or, in circular
 * mode, when the buffer has been filled and the operation is restarted. In
 * circular mode a callback is also invoked when the buffer is half filled.<br>
 * The "half filled" and "filled" callbacks in circular mode allow to
 * implement "streaming processing" of the sampled data, while the driver is
 * busy filling one half of the buffer the application can process the
 * other half, this allows for continuous interleaved operations.
 *
 * The driver is not thread safe for performance reasons, if you need to access
 * the ADC bus from multiple threads then use the @p adcAcquireBus() and
 * @p adcReleaseBus() APIs in order to gain exclusive access.
