How to control it in MicroPython

This makes Pin 34 an analog input and set it to 12 bit. It reads the analog value every second and print it to the console.

 1 #Example usage for ESP32
 2 from machine import Pin, ADC
 3 from time import sleep
 4 
 5 analogPin = ADC(Pin(34))
 6 analogPin.atten(ADC.ATTN_11DB)
 7 
 8 while True:
 9   analogVal = analogPin.read()
10   print(analogVal)
11   sleep(1)
