The shaded bits are not used for A/D converter purposes.
ADDATL
The registers ADDATH and ADDATL hold the 10-bit conversion result in left justified data format.
The most significant bit of the 10-bit conversion result is bit 7 of ADDATH. The least significant bit
of the 10-bit conversion result is bit 6 of ADDATL. To get a 10-bit conversion result, both ADDAT
register must be read. If an 8-bit conversion result is required, only the reading of ADDATH is
necessary. The data remain in ADDATH/ADDATL until it is overwritten by the next converted data.
ADDAT can be read or written under software control. lf the A/D converter of the C515A is not used,
register ADDATH can be used as an additional general purpose register.
Each A/D conversion is started by writing to SFR ADDATL with dummy data. If continuous
conversion is selected, ADDATL must be written only once to start continuous conversion.
