There are some situations where external system activity causes radiated or conducted noise emissions or
excessive V
wait or stop3 or I/O activity cannot be halted, these recommended actions may reduce the effect of noise
on the accuracy:
10.6.2.4
The ADC quantizes the ideal straight-line transfer function into 4096 steps (in 12-bit mode). Each step
ideally has the same height (1 code) and width. The width is defined as the delta between the transition
points to one code and the next. The ideal code width for an N bit converter (in this case N can be 8, 10 or
12), defined as 1
There is an inherent quantization error due to the digitization of the result. For 8-bit or 10-bit conversions
the code transitions when the voltage is at the midpoint between the points where the straight line transfer
function is exactly represented by the actual transfer function. Therefore, the quantization error will be
±1/2 lsb in 8- or 10-bit mode. As a consequence, however, the code width of the first (0x000) conversion
is only 1/2 lsb and the code width of the last (0xFF or 0x3FF) is 1.5 lsb.
For 12-bit conversions the code transitions only after the full code width is present, so the quantization
error is −1 lsb to 0 lsb and the code width of each step is 1 lsb.
10.6.2.5
The ADC may also exhibit non-linearity of several forms. Every effort has been made to reduce these
errors but the system must be aware of them because they affect overall accuracy. These errors are:

Reduce the effect of synchronous noise by operating off the asynchronous clock (ADACK) and
averaging. Noise that is synchronous to ADCK cannot be averaged out.

0x001 code width and its ideal (1 lsb) is used.
Full-scale error (E
