39.5.3 Selecting Comparator Inputs

Each comparator has one positive and one negative input. These inputs can come from one of the external input pins (AINx) or from one of the several internal reference voltage sources. The user selects the input source as follows:

• The positive input is selected by the Positive Input MUX Select bit group in the Comparator Control register (COMPCTRLx.MUXPOS)
• The negative input is selected by the Negative Input MUX Select bit group in the Comparator Control register (COMPCTRLx.MUXNEG)

In the case of using an external I/O pin, the selected pin must be configured for analog use in the PORT Controller by disabling the digital input and output. The switching of the analog input multiplexers is controlled to minimize crosstalk between the channels. The input selection must be changed only while the individual comparator is disabled.
