18.4.3 Digital Input Disable Register 0

When the respective bits are written to logic one, the digital input buffer on the corresponding ADC pin is disabled. The corresponding PIN Register bit will always read as zero when this bit is set. When an analog signal is applied to the ADC[7:0] pin and the digital input from this pin is not needed, this bit should be written logic one to reduce power consumption in the digital input buffer.

  • ADC:
    • When ADC0D or ADC1D is set to '1', the digital input buffer on the corresponding ADC pin is disabled. The corresponding PIN register bit will always read as zero when this bit is set. When an analog signal is applied to the ADC[7:0] pin and the digital input from this pin is not needed, this bit should be written logic one to reduce power consumption in the digital input buffer.
  • AC:
    • When ADC0D or ADC1D is set to '1', the digital input buffer on pin AIN1 (ADC1) / AIN0 (ADC0) is disabled and the corresponding PIN register bit will read as zero. When used as an analog input but not required as a digital input the power consumption in the digital input buffer can be reduced by writing this bit to logic one.
    • DIDR0[7:2] : these bits are not applicable for AC.
