1.  yes, you probably killed your analog 5.  the analog inputs are
very sensitive to over voltage.  if your ran more than +5v directly
into the input, you probably killed it.

When I first got my HC11EVB I ran 12V straight into the E port (one of
the pins), and was sure I ruined the chip.  I called the tech support
person at motorola, and he said 12V on a A/D port should be no
problem.  Sure enough it all still worked.

I think somewhere in the "pink book", it does state that 200% of
reference voltage is ok.

(...) this isn't right, so i feel the need to correct you. the hc11's analog inputs are sensitive; i have seen many of them destroyed (on a pin-by-pin basis), and voltages above 5v or below 0v are the cause). more accurately, it's not the voltage (...)
