3.4 GPADC(General Purpose ADC) and AUTOADC2
The GPADC consists of a 14 input MUX and an 8-bit ADC. The analog input signal is selected
with the MUX and converted in the ADC.
The GPADC has a built in controller, AUTOADC2, which is able to operate in the background
without software intervention. The AUTOADC2 periodically measures the battery voltage or
current. (Fig.3-4-1) shows the schematic of GPADC part. The GPADC channel spec is as following
(Table 3-4-1).
