37.6.3.1 Description

The Analog-to-Digital Converter filters and decimates the sigma-delta ADC output bitstream. Its output is defined on 16bits unsigned format with the following programmable output rates: CLK_SDADC_FS/64, CLK_SDADC_FS/128, CLK_SDADC_FS/256, CLK_SDADC_FS/512 and CLK_SDADC_FS/1024, where CLK_SDADC_FS is the sigma-delta ADC’s sampling frequency: CLK_SDADC_FS = CLK_SDADC_PRESCALER/4, the reduction comes from the phase generator between the prescaler and the SDADC.

The filtering and the decimation is performed by a SINC-based filter whose zeros are placed in order to minimize aliasing effects of the decimation.
