6.2ADCRegisterDescriptions
The ADC is controlled by ADC SFR registers . Four of the registers, ADST, ADADDR, ADCN, and ADDATA, are used for
setup, control, and reading from the ADC . There are five other registers, ETS, ADCG1, ADCG5, ADVOFF, and TOEX,
which are used to adjust the gains and offsets applied to ADC results . To avoid undesired operations, the user should
not write to bits labeled as reserved .
6.2.1ADCControlRegister(ADCN)
Register Address: M2[08h]
*Unrestricted read, but can only be written to when ADCONV = 0.

IREFEN
Internal Reference Enable . For voltage mode inputs, setting this bit to 1 enables the internal refer-
ence and clearing this bit to 0 chooses external reference sourced from pin AD3N . If the channel
select bits equal 6 or 7 or if the external temperature mode is chosen, then the internal reference is
chosen regardless of IREFEN setting . If an external reference is desired, see
for more information . When the internal reference is used, the FS can be set to factory pro-
grammed settings, 1 .225V or 5 .5V . The appropriate FS is chosen by the ADGAIN bit described in the
configuration section .
6
ADCONT
ADC Continuous Sequence Mode . Setting this bit to 1 enables the continuous sequence mode .
Clearing this bit to 0 disables the continuous sequence mode . In single sequence mode, the ADC
conversion stops after the end of the sequence .
5
ADDAIE
ADC Data Available Interrupt Enable . Setting the ADDAIE bit to 1 enable an interrupt to be generated
to the CPU when the ADDAI = 1 . Clearing this bit to 0 disables an interrupt from generating when
ADDAI = 1 .

ADACQ[3:0]
ADC Acquisition Extension Bits [3:0] . These bits are used to extend sample acquisition time if the
corresponding ADC acquisition extension is enabled (ADACQEN = 1) . See
for details .
