Using Table 17-22 or the graph plotted in Figure 17-6, resolution can be set between 6 and 16 bits. Notice that,
because of 16-bit register use for the ADC output, practical resolution is limited to 16 bits, i.e. n ≤ 16. Even if the
resolution is truncated to 16 bit by the output register size, it may make sense to set OSR and N
values in order to reduce the influence of the thermal noise in the PGA (see section 17.8.4).
17.7.6
As explained using Figure 17-5, conversion time is given by:
and throughput is then simply 1/T
conversions, and a sampling frequency of 500kHz (SET_OSR = "101", SET_NELC = "01", f
"00"). In this case, using Table 17-23, the conversion time is 515 sampling periods, or 1.03ms. This corresponds to
a throughput of 971Hz in continuous-time mode. The plot of Figure 17-7 illustrates the classic trade-off between
resolution and conversion time.
17.7.7
The ADC output code is a 16-bit word in two's complement format (see Table 17-24). For input voltages outside the
range, the output code is saturated to the closest full-scale value (i.e. 0x7FFF or 0x8000). For resolutions smaller
than 16 bits, the non-significant bits are forced to the values shown in Table 17-25. The output code, expressed in
LSBs, corresponds to:
