+/*!
+ @brief Returns the oversampled conversion results on the specified ADC channel.
+
+ This function will manually start A/D conversions on a single
+ channel sum and divide results to get a value of increased resolution.
+
+ Read more: AVR121: Enhancing ADC resolution by oversampling [http://www.atmel.com/Images/doc8003.pdf]
+
+ @param[in] channelNum
+ The A/D channel [0..7] that will be used during the A/D
+ conversion. (Note that only A/D channel's 0..3 are
+ configured by default in adcInit.)
+
+ @param[in] extraBits
+ Additional bits you want to add to resolution. Hardware resolution is
+ 10bits, if 6 is psecified as extraBits, the resolution will be increated to
+ 16 bit.
+
+ @return 0 if an overrun error occured, otherwise a 10-bit value
+ containing the A/D conversion results.
+
+ @warning Only AD channels 0..3 are configured for A/D in adcInit.
+ If you wish to use A/D pins 4..7 they will also need to
+ be added to the adcInit function.
