Resolution
The theoretical resolution of the ADC, without considering thermal noise, is given by:
Using look-up Table 13 or the graph plotted in Figure 12, resolution can be set between 6 and 16 bits. Notice
that, because of 16-bit register use for the ADC output, practically the resolution is limited to 16 bits,
i.e. n
OSR and N
external noises (see section “PGA Gain & Offset, Linearity and Noise” in page 37).

16. Even though the resolution is truncated to 16 bit by the output register size, it may make sense to set

to higher values in order to reduce the influence of the thermal noise in the PGA and of
