2.6.4.2 A/D Conversion method, 8-bit mode
In 8-bit mode, the 8 higher-order bits of the 10-bit successive comparison register becomes the A-D
conversion result. Hence, if compared to a result obtained by using an 8-bit A-D converter, the voltage
compared is different by 3 Vref/2048 (see underscored in Table 2.33), and differences in stepping points
of output codes occur as shown in Figure 2.94.
