Note:
  1. ADC Module 1, Channel 6 is attached internally to VDDCORE Voltage Monitor.
  2. ADC Module 2, Channel 6 is attached internally to Temperature Sensor Monitor.
  3. ADC Module 3, Channel 6 is attached internally to IVREF, Band Gap 1.2 Volt Monitor.
Note: Please consult the section “Signal Description” and “ADC Pinout I/O Description” table to determine which pins provide which input signals, depending on the device package in use.

All the AINx signals listed above can be used for single-ended input. ADC Modules 1-3 can also provide three differential input pairs each:

  • (ADCn_AIN0 (Diff +) , ADCn_AIN1 (Diff -) )
  • (ADCn_AIN2 (Diff +) , ADCn_AIN3 (Diff -) )
  • (ADCn_AIN4 (Diff +) , ADCn_AIN5 (Diff -) )

For ADC Module n=1,2,3: These pairs are configured in the CHNCFG3n (n=1,2,3) register by setting the DIFF bits corresponding to the signal pairs in use.
