Decode ADC Result Using Union Bitfields

Code

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>

typedef union {
    struct {
        uint16_t adc_value : 12;
        uint16_t channel   : 4;
    } val;
    uint16_t adc_reg;
} ADC_Result;

int main() {
    uint16_t reg;
    scanf("%hx", &reg);
    ADC_Result resVal;
    resVal. adc_reg = reg;
    // Fill union and print channel and adc_value
    printf("Channel: %u", resVal.val.channel);
    printf("\nADC Value: %u", resVal.val.adc_value);
    return 0;
}
