Note:
  1. tCONV = tCH + tTRACK + 14 x tCKADC with tCKADC = 1 / fCKADC. tCH = 0 when the ADC operates in the same input mode (single-ended, pseudo-differential or differential) for the current conversion than for the previous one. tCH = 2 when the ADC input mode is changed to perform the current conversion.
  2. fS = 1 / tCONV.

Figure 58-37. Acquisition Path Block Diagram

For tracking time calculation, during the sampling phase of the converter, this acquisition path can be reduced to the equivalent model provided in the following figure, where:

  • RON = RMUX + RS
  • CP_ADX = CPX + CP_MUX

Figure 58-38. Equivalent Model of the Acquisition Path

See Track and Hold Time versus Source Impedance – Sampling Rate for further details on how to use this model.

In the following table, unless otherwise specified, the specifications are given for two speed operating ranges.
  • Source resistance = 50 Ω
  • ADC_EMR.OSR<2:0> = (000)2
  • Low-speed
    • fCKADC = 10 MHz, fS = 500 kS/s
    • ADC_ACR.IBCTL = (00)2
  • High-speed
    • fCKADC = 20 MHz, fS = 1 MS/s
    • ADC_ACR.IBCTL = (01)2

Warning: ADC channels should be selected knowing that toggling the QSPI I/Os may decrease ADC channel 4 and 0 performances.
Note:
  1. In this table, errors are expressed in LSB where:
    • LSB = VADVREF / 212 in Single-ended mode (ADC_CCR.DIFFx = 0 and ADC_PDR.PDIFFx = 0)
    • LSB = VADVREF / 211 in Differential or Pseudo-differential mode (ADC_CCR.DIFFx = 1)
