  This demo is based on the GD32E231K-EVAL-V1.1 board, it shows how to configure the 
ADC peripheral to convert the analog signal to digital data. PA2(channel2) is chosen 
as analog input pin. The ADC clock is configured to 12MHz. The CH0 event of TIMER0(the
frequence is 120kHz) is used as the trigger source of ADC. So the conversion frequence 
of ADC is also 120kHz.

  The converted data in the ADC_RDATA register is moved into SRAM(through DMA).

  The analog input pin PA2 should configured to analog mode. The users can change the
VR1 on the GD32E231K-EVAL-V1.1 board, and the LCD will display the ADC convert values 
with a voltage curve. The curve adjusts with the analog input.
