8.7.1.2 External Absolute Reference
If a stable external source is provided, the reference measurement point
can be any one of the channel selected pins from PB1–PB4. In this case
the reference reading can be taken by setting the MUX bit in the AMUX
which connects channel selection bus to the pin connected to the
external reference source. If the external reference is greater than
VDD –1.5 volts, then the DHOLD bit should be used to select the 1/2
divided input.

divide by 2 (average of both)
Average multiple readings on both the
reference and the unknown voltage
8.7.2 Ratiometric Voltage Readings
The ratiometric value of a voltage measurement can be calculated in
software by first taking a reference reading from a reference source and
then comparing subsequent unknown voltages to that reading as a
percentage of the reference value. The accuracy of ratiometric readings
