Enhanced Queued Analog-to-Digital Converter (eQADC)

Figure 19-53 shows the maximum configuration of four external multiplexer chips connected to the 
eQADC. The external multiplexer chip selects one of eight analog inputs and connects it to a single analog 
output, which is fed to a specific input of the eQADC. The eQADC provides three multiplexed address 
signals, MA[0], MA[1], and MA[2], to select one of eight inputs. These three multiplexed address signals 
are connected to all four external multiplexer chips. The analog output of the four multiplex chips are each 
connected to four separate eQADC inputs, ANW, ANX, ANY, and ANZ. The MA pins correspond to the 
three least significant bits of the channel number that selects ANW, ANX, ANY, and ANZ with MA[0] 
being the most significant bit. Refer to Table 19-53.
When the external multiplexed mode is selected for either ADC, the eQADC automatically creates the MA 
output signals from CHANNEL_NUMBER field of a command message. The eQADC also converts the 
proper input channel (ANW, ANX, ANY, and ANZ) by interpreting the CHANNEL_NUMBER field. As 
a result, up to 32 externally multiplexed channels appear to the conversion queues as directly connected 
signals.
