Programming Considerations
During microcontroller operations where the A/D converter is not being used, the A/D internal
circuitry can be switched off to reduce power consumption, by setting bit ADOFF high in the
ADCR0 register. When this happens, the internal A/D converter circuits will not consume power
irrespective of what analog voltage is applied to their input lines. If the A/D converter input lines are
used as normal I/Os, then care must be taken as if the input voltage is not at a valid logic level, then
this may lead to some increase in power consumption.
A/D Transfer Function
As the device contains a 12-bit A/D converter, its full-scale converted digitised value is equal to
FFFH. Since the full-scale analog input value is equal to the AV
DD
or V
REF
voltage, this gives a single
bit analog input value of AV
DD
or V
REF
divided by 4096.
1 LSB= (AV
DD
or V
REF
) /4096
The A/D Converter input voltage value can be calculated using the following equation:
A/D input voltage = A/D output digital value × (AV
DD
or V
REF
) /4096
The diagram shows the ideal transfer function between the analog input value and the digitised
output value for the A/D converter. Except for the digitised zero value, the subsequent digitised
values will change at a point 0.5 LSB below where they would change without the offset, and the
last full scale digitised value will change at a point 1.5 LSB below the AV
DD
or V
REF
level.
