ATmega16M1/32M1/64M1
22.10 Register Description
The ADC of the ATmega16M1/32M1/64M1 is controlled through 3 different registers. The ADC-
SRA and the ADCSRB registers which are the ADC Control and Status registers, and the
ADMUX which allows to select the VREF source and the channel to be converted.
The configuration of the amplifiers are controlled via two dedicated registers AMP0CSR and
AMP1CSR. Then the start of conversion is done via the ADC control and status registers.
The conversion result is stored on ADCH and ADCL register which contain respectively the most
significant bits and the less significant bits.

ADMUX – ADC Multiplexer Register
• Bit 7:6 – REFS[1:0]: ADC Vref Selection Bits
These 2 bits determine the voltage reference for the ADC.
The different setting are shown in
If bits REFS1 and REFS0 are changed during a conversion, the change will not take effect until
this conversion is complete (it means while the ADIF bit in ADCSRA register is set).
In case the internal Vref is selected, it is turned ON as soon as an analog feature needed it is
set.
• Bit 5 – ADLAR: ADC Left Adjust Result
Set this bit to left adjust the ADC result.
Clear it to right adjust the ADC result.
The ADLAR bit affects the configuration of the ADC result data registers. Changing this bit
affects the ADC data registers immediately regardless of any on going conversion. For a com-
plete description of this bit, see
“ADCH and ADCL – ADC Result Data Registers” on page 247
