Analog Comparators

Figure 15-2. Structure of Comparator Unit
+ve input (alternate)
A comparator is configured through two status/control registers (ACCTL and ACSTAT ). The internal
reference is configured through one control register (ACREFCTL). Interrupt status and control is
configured through three registers (ACMIS, ACRIS, and ACINTEN). The operating modes of the
comparators are shown in the Comparator Operating Mode tables.
Typically, the comparator output is used internally to generate controller interrupts. It may also be
used to drive an external pin.

Certain register bit values must be set before using the analog comparators. The proper
pad configuration for the comparator input and output pins are described in the
Comparator Operating Mode tables.
