increase in this parameter to enable more closely spaced transducers. For transducers spaced 25 µs apart,
increase this count to 15000 ns.
The "Turn on ADC Count" determines when the ADC is turned on. The relevant timing diagrams for the
operation of the ULP bias circuit can be found in the
MSP430FR58xx, MSP430FR59xx, and MSP430FR6xx
. Do not modify this parameter.
The "Start PGA and IN Bias Count" determines when the PGA and in Bias Circuit is turned on. The relevant
timing diagrams for the operation of the ULP bias circuit can be found in the
and MSP430FR6xx Family User's Guide
. Do not modify this parameter.
The “USS XTAL Settling Count” determines how much time is allowed for crystal or resonator settling. Based on
internal experiments, 120 µs is suggested for resonators, and 5000 µs is suggested for crystals.
The "Search Range" parameter is specific to gas algorithms and is not currently used by the "Lobe" algorithm.
4.2.4 Configuration Tuning
After a working configuration has been set, you can experiment with changes to that working set to tune the
system for optimum performance and power.
