ADC Reference Selection
AdcRegs.ADCREFSEL
The internal reference has temperature stability of ~50 PPM/
°
C*
The internal reference (default) will convert an applied input voltage
to a fixed scale of 0 to 3.3 V range
If this is not sufficient for your application, there is the option to use
an external reference*
External reference will scale an input voltage range from VREFLO to
VREFHI (ratiometric)
The reference value changes the 0 - 3.3 V full-scale range of the ADC
The ADCREFSEL in ADCCTL1 controls the reference choice
* See device datasheet for exact specifications and ADC reference hardware connections
