Figure 1 – ADC current consumption (single ended mode).
The current consumption presented in the previous figure is for the situation where the ADC
is operating in successive conversion mode (soc always set to high, check section 7 for
more detail).
If the ADC is waiting for a new conversion to start (soc set to low and eoc set to high), the
current consumption during this period will be greatly reduced. This can be an interesting
feature if the ADC is operating in single conversion mode (check section 7 for more detail),
which means that soc signal will only be set to high from time to time. The effective current
consumption reduction will depend on the time period left between each conversion cycle.
Please check the current consumption while the ADC is waiting for a new conversion cycle
(soc set to low and eoc set to high), in power supply requirements section in the
specifications table.
Internal Voltage Regulator
The IP includes an internal voltage regulator to generate a clean internal 1.8V power supply
(dvdd_ldo).
In case there is a clean external 1.8V power supply available for ADC use, the internal
voltage regulator can be bypassed by setting enldo=L and connecting dvdd_ldo pin to the
clean external 1.8V power supply.
