Chapter 15 A/D Converter
XV - 17
To maintain high precision of A/D conversion, following instructions on use of A/D con-
verter should be strictly kept.
1. Input impedance R of A/D input pin should be under 500 k
Ω *1 . And connect the
external capacitor C (over 1000 pF, under 1
µ
F) *1 between Vss and the A/D input
pin.
2. Set the A/D conversion frequency depending on the time constant of R and C.
3. Changing the output level of the microcontroller or switching ON/OFF of the periph-
eral added circuit while the A/D conversion is in progress may lower the precision of
A/D conversion, for these may fluctuate the values of the analog input pin and the
power pin. Check the waveform of the analog input pin before the system evaluation.
