Description
G1_8BIT
Group1 8-bit result mode.
This field is only applicable when the ADC module is configured to be in the 10-bit ADC module. This
field is reserved when the module is configured as a 12-bit ADC module.
This bit allows the Group1 conversion results to be read out in an 8-bit format. This bit only applies to
the “read from FIFO” mode. The lower 2 bits of the 10-bit conversion result are discarded and the
upper 8 bits are shifted right two places to form the 8-bit conversion result.
Any operation mode read/write:
0
The Group1 conversion result is read out as a 10-bit value in the “read from Group1 FIFO” mode.
1
The Group1 conversion result is read out as an 8-bit value in the “read from Group1 FIFO” mode.
G1_MODE
Group1 Conversion Mode. This bit defines whether the input channels selected for conversion in the
Group1 are converted only once, or are continuously converted.
Any operation mode read/write:
0
The channels selected for conversion in the Group1 are converted only once.
1
The channels selected for conversion in the Group1 are converted continuously.
FRZ_G1
Group1 Freeze Enable. This bit allows a Group1 conversion sequence to be frozen if an Event Group
or a Group2 conversion is requested. The Group1 conversion is kept frozen while the Event Group or
Group2 conversion is active, and continues from where it was frozen once the Event Group or Group2
conversions are completed.
While the Group1 conversion is frozen, the G1_STOP status flag in the ADG1SR register indicates that
the Group1 conversions have stopped. This bit gets cleared when the Group1 conversions resume.
Any operation mode read/write:
0
Group1 conversions cannot be frozen. All the channels selected for conversion in the Group1 are
converted before the ADC can switch over to servicing any other conversion group.
1
Group1 conversions are frozen whenever there is a request for conversion from Event Group or
Group2.
