21.15 Register Description - ADC Channel
21.15.1
CTRL – Control Register
• Bit 7 – START: START Conversion on Channel
Setting this bit will start a conversion on the channel. The bit is cleared by hardware when the
conversion has started. Setting this bit when it already is set will have no effect. Writing or read-
ing this bit is equivalent to writing the CH[3:0]START bits in
”CTRLA – Control register A” on
.
• Bit 6:5 – Reserved
These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always
write these bits to zero when this register is written.
• Bit 4:2 – GAIN[2:0]: Gain Factor
These bits define the gain factor for the ADC gain stage.
See
. Gain is valid only with certain MUX settings. See
MUX Control registers” on page 265
.
• Bit 1:0 – INPUTMODE[1:0]: Channel Input Mode
These bits define the channel mode. Changing input mode will corrupt any data in the pipeline.
