along with the use of the active bipolar prescaler, current monitor, or temperature monitor, the minimum

sample time(s) for each must be obeyed. EQ 19 can be used to determine the appropriate value of STC.

You can calculate the minimum actual acquisition time by using EQ 16:

VOUT = VIN(1 – e–t/RC)

EQ 16

For 0.5 LSB gain error, VOUT should be replaced with (VIN –(0.5 × LSB Value)):

(VIN – 0.5 × LSB Value) = VIN(1 – e–t/RC)

EQ 17

where VIN is the ADC reference voltage (VREF)

Solving EQ 17:

t = RC x ln (VIN / (0.5 x LSB Value))

EQ 18

where R = ZINAD + RSOURCE and C = CINAD.

Calculate the value of STC by using EQ 19.

tSAMPLE = (2 + STC) x (1 / ADCCLK) or tSAMPLE = (2 + STC) x (ADC Clock Period)

EQ 19

where ADCCLK = ADC clock frequency in MHz.

tSAMPLE = 0.449 µs from bit resolution in Table 2-44.

ADC Clock frequency = 10 MHz or a 100 ns period.

STC = (tSAMPLE / (1 / 10 MHz)) – 2 = 4.49 – 2 = 2.49.

You must round up to 3 to accommodate the minimum sample time.

Sample Phase

A conversion is performed in three phases. In the first phase, the analog input voltage is sampled on the

input capacitor. This phase is called sample phase. During the sample phase, the output signals BUSY

and SAMPLE change from '0' to '1', indicating the ADC is busy and sampling the analog signal. The

sample time can be controlled by input signals STC[7:0]. The sample time can be calculated by EQ 20.

When controlling the sample time for the ADC along with the use of Prescaler or Current Monitor or

Temperature Monitor, the minimum sample time for each must be obeyed. Refer to Table 2-46 on

page 2-111 and the "Acquisition Time or Sample Time Control" section on page 2-109
