1. Typical values assume V
DDA
 = 3.0 V, Temp = 25 °C, f
ADCK
 = 1.0 MHz, unless otherwise stated. Typical values are for
reference only, and are not tested in production.
2. DC potential difference.
3. For packages without dedicated VREFH and VREFL pins, V
REFH
 is internally tied to V
DDA
, and V
REFL
 is internally tied
to V
SSA
.
4. This resistance is external to MCU. To achieve the best results, the analog source resistance must be kept as low as
possible. The results in this data sheet were derived from a system that had < 8 Ω analog source resistance. The R
AS
/
C
AS
 time constant should be kept to < 1 ns.
5. To use the maximum ADC conversion clock frequency, CFG2[ADHSC] must be set and CFG1[ADLPC] must be clear.
6. For guidelines and examples of conversion rate calculation, download the ADC calculator tool.
