Analog Input Pins 8 pins (AN0 to AN7) + 2 pins (ANEX0 and ANEX1) + 8 pins (AN0_0 to AN0_7)
+ 8 pins (AN2_0 to AN2_7)
A/D Conversion • Software trigger
Start Condition The ADST bit in the ADCON0 register is set to “1” (A/D conversion starts)
• External trigger (retriggerable)
_____________
Input on the ADTRG pin changes state from high to low after the ADST bit
is set to “1” (A/D conversion starts)
Conversion Speed Per Pin • Without sample and hold
8-bit resolution: 49 φAD cycles, 10-bit resolution: 59 φAD cycles
• With sample and hold
8-bit resolution: 28 φAD cycles, 10-bit resolution: 33 φAD cycles
NOTES:
1. Does not depend on use of sample and hold.
2. φAD frequency must be 10 MHz or less.
When sample and hold is disabled, φAD frequency must be 250 kHz or more.
When sample and hold is enabled, φAD frequency must be 1 MHz or more.
16. A/D Converter
The microcomputer contains one A/D converter circuit based on 10-bit successive approximation method
configured with a capacitive-coupling amplifier. The analog inputs share the pins with P10_0 to P10_7,
_____________
P9_5, P9_6, P0_0 to P0_7, and P2_0 to P2_7. Similarly, ADTRG input shares the pin with P9_7. Therefore,
when using these inputs, make sure the corresponding port direction bits are set to “0” (input mode).
When not using the A/D converter, set the VCUT bit to “0” (VREF unconnected), so that no current will flow
from the VREF pin into the resistor ladder, helping to reduce the power consumption of the chip.
The A/D conversion result is stored in the ADi register’s bits for ANi, AN0_i, and AN2_i pins (i = 0 to 7).
Table 16.1 shows the performance of the A/D converter. Figure 16.1 shows the block diagram of the A/D
converter, and Figures 16.2 and 16.3 show the A/D converter-related registers.
