ATmega329/3290/649/6490
2552H–AVR–11/06
Figure 97. Differential Measurement Range
ADMUX = 0xFB (ADC3 - ADC2, 1.1V reference, left adjusted result)
Voltage on ADC3 is 300 mV, voltage on ADC2 is 500 mV.
ADCR = 512 * (300 - 500) / 1100 = -93 = 0x3A3.
ADCL will thus read 0xC0, and ADCH will read 0xD8. Writing zero to ADLAR right
adjusts the result: ADCL = 0xA3, ADCH = 0x03.
