Yes, if the OP is talking about the ep9302 onboard adc (originally
intended for a touch screen).

But I think the OP means the optional MAX197 chip (as adc.o is part of
Phil's driver for that chip).  To use the MAX197 chip:

* Be sure your TS-7250 board came with it (you can't just plug one in
and have it work)
* Google & D/L the MAX197 data sheet; it's very helpful
* Get Phil McCarl's device driver for the chip from the files area of
the yahoo group.  There are detailed README, INSTALL and example files
that will tell you all you need to do to use the driver.
* There are also other workable drivers & userspace utilities in the
yahoo file section too, I think, depending on what sample speed you need.
* Look in the TS-7250 manual & schematic for the ADC pin-outs.
