Appendix B
ADC Electricals
This section describes the characteristics of the analog-to-digital converter.
B.1
ADC Operating Characteristics
The Table B-1 shows conditions under which the ADC operates.
The following constraints exist to obtain full-scale, full range results:
VSSA
VRL
V
IN
VRH
VDDA
This constraint exists since the sample buffer amplifier can not drive beyond the power supply levels that
it ties to. If the input level goes outside of this range it will effectively be clipped.

Factors Influencing Accuracy
Source resistance, source capacitance and current injection have an influence on the accuracy of the ADC.
A further factor is that PortAD pins that are configured as output drivers switching.
