The ADC has a built in 12-bit compare function. The ADC compare register can hold a 12-bit
value that represent an analog threshold voltage. Each ADC Channel can be configured to auto-
matically compare its result with this 12-bit compare value to give an interrupt or event only
when the result is above or below the threshold.
All four ADC Channels share the same compare register.
Before a conversion is started, the desired input source must be selected for one or more ADC
channels. An ADC conversion for a ADC channel can either be started by the application soft-
ware writing to the start conversion bit for the ADC channel, or from any of the events in the
Event System. It is possible to write the start conversion bit for several ADC channels at the
same time, or to use one event to trigger conversions on several ADC channels at the same
time. Using this it is possible to scan several or all ADC channels from one event.
The ADC is clocked from the Peripheral Clock. The ADC can prescale the Peripheral Clock to
provide an ADC Clock (Clk
