ADC converter
The ADC operates from both the 3.3-V analog and 1.2-V digital power supplies. The ADC clock can
be configured to reduce power consumption when ADC conversions are not required (see “System
Control” on page 203). The analog inputs are connected to the ADC through specially balanced input
paths to minimize the distortion and cross-talk on the inputs. Detailed information on the ADC power
supplies and analog inputs can be found in “Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC)” on page 1079.
12.3.4.1
Internal Voltage Reference
The band-gap circuitry generates an internal 3.0 V reference that can be used by the ADC to produce
a conversion value from the selected analog input. The range of this conversion value is from 0x000
to 0x3FF. This configuration results in a resolution of approximately 2.9 mV per ADC code. While
the analog input pads can handle voltages beyond this range, the ADC conversions saturate in
under-voltage and over-voltage cases. Figure 12-8 on page 542 shows the ADC conversion function
of the analog inputs.
