Signal Description
Table 15-1 on page 551 and Table 15-2 on page 551 list the external signals of the Analog Comparators
and describe the function of each. The Analog Comparator output signals are alternate functions
for some GPIO signals and default to be GPIO signals at reset. The column in the table below titled
"Pin Assignment" lists the possible GPIO pin placements for the Analog Comparator signals. The
AFSEL bit in the GPIO Alternate Function Select (GPIOAFSEL) register (page 299) should be set
to choose the Analog Comparator function. The positive and negative input signals are configured
by clearing the DEN bit in the GPIO Digital Enable (GPIODEN) register. For more information on
configuring GPIOs, see “General-Purpose Input/Outputs (GPIOs)” on page 277.

15.3 Functional Description
Important: It is recommended that the Digital-Input enable (the GPIODEN bit in the GPIO module)
for the analog input pin be disabled to prevent excessive current draw from the I/O
pads.
The comparator compares the VIN- and VIN+ inputs to produce an output, VOUT.
VIN- < VIN+, VOUT = 1
VIN- > VIN+, VOUT = 0
As shown in Figure 15-2 on page 552, the input source for VIN- is an external input. In addition to
an external input, input sources for VIN+ can be the +ve input of comparator 0 or an internal reference.
