33.3.4 Events

The ADC can generate the following events:

Table 33-9. ADC Event Generators
Generator Name Description Event Type Generating Clock Domain Length of Event
Peripheral Event
ADCn RESRDY Result ready Pulse CLK_PER One CLK_PER period
ADCn SAMPRDY Sample ready Pulse CLK_PER One CLK_PER period
ADCn WCMP Window compare match Pulse CLK_PER One CLK_PER period

The conditions for generating an event are identical to those that will raise the corresponding flag in the Interrupt Flags (ADCn.INTFLAGS) register.

The ADC has one event user for detecting and acting upon input events. The table below describes the event user and the associated functionality.

Table 33-10. ADC Event Users and Available Event Actions
User Name Description Input Detection Async/Sync
Peripheral Event
ADCn START ADC start on event Edge Async

The START event action can be triggered if the EVENT_TRIGGER setting is written to the START bit field in the Command (ADCn.COMMAND) register.
