Implementation
Analogue-to-digital conversion is implemented using a DAC to successively approximate (in
hardware) the output of a sample-and-hold circuit. Physically, there are four DACs, each shared
by four AIO ports, as illustrated below.

AIO Configuration
The mode of each AIO port can be selected by writing to the appropriate mode register. Each
register sets the mode for 4 AIO ports with the bits defined in Table 2.87.
