in ADCSRA. The prescaler keeps running for as long as the ADEN bit is set, and is continuously

reset when ADEN is low.

When initiating a single ended conversion by setting the ADSC bit in ADCSRA, the conversion

starts at the following rising edge of the ADC clock cycle. See “Differential Gain Channels” on

page 214 for details on differential conversion timing.

A normal conversion takes 13 ADC clock cycles. The first conversion after the ADC is switched

on (ADEN in ADCSRA is set) takes 25 ADC clock cycles in order to initialize the analog circuitry.

The actual sample-and-hold takes place 1.5 ADC clock cycles after the start of a normal conver-

sion and 13.5 ADC clock cycles after the start of a first conversion. When a conversion is

complete, the result is written to the ADC Data Registers, and ADIF is set. In single conversion

mode, ADSC is cleared simultaneously. The software may then set ADSC again, and a new

conversion will be initiated on the first rising ADC clock edge.

When Auto Triggering is used, the prescaler is reset when the trigger event occurs. This assures

a fixed delay from the trigger event to the start of conversion. In this mode, the sample-and-hold

takes place 2 ADC clock cycles after the rising edge on the trigger source signal. Three addi-

tional CPU clock cycles are used for synchronization logic.

When using Differential mode, along with Auto Trigging from a source other than the ADC Con-

version Complete, each conversion will require 25 ADC clocks. This is because the ADC must

be disabled and re-enabled after every conversion.

In Free Running mode, a new conversion will be started immediately after the conversion com-

pletes, while ADSC remains high. For a summary of conversion times, see Table 22-1.
