Bit Field Type Reset Description
6 CONT_RUN R/W 0h Continuous run. This bit determines whether the sequencer operates
in continuous conversion mode or start-stop mode. This bit can be
written while a current conversion sequence is active. This bit will
take effect at the end of the current conversion sequence i.e.,
software can set/clear this bit until EOS has occurred, for valid action
to be taken. In the continuous conversion mode, there is no need to
reset the sequencer however, the sequencer must be reset in the
start-stop mode to put the converter in state CONV00.
0h = Start-stop mode. Sequencer stops after reaching EOS. On the
next SOC, the sequencer starts from the state where it ended unless
a sequencer reset is performed.
1h = Continuous conversion mode. After reaching EOS, the behavior
of the sequencer depends on the state of the SEQ_OVRD bit. If this
bit is cleared, the sequencer starts over again from its reset state
(CONV00 for SEQ1 and cascaded, CONV08 for SEQ2). If
SEQ_OVRD is set, the sequencer starts again from its current
position, without resetting.
5 SEQ_OVRD R/W 0h Sequencer override. Provides additional sequencer flexibility in
continuous run mode by overriding the wrapping around at the end
of conversions set by MAX_CONVn.
0h = Disabled - Allows the sequencer to wrap around at the end of
conversions set by MAX_CONVn.
1h = Enabled - Overrides the sequencer from wrapping around at
the end of conversions set by MAX_CONVn. Wraparound occurs
only at the end of the sequencer.
4 SEQ_CASC R/W 0h Cascaded sequencer operation. This bit determines whether SEQ1
and SEQ2 operate as two 8-state sequencers or as a single 16-state
sequencer (SEQ).
0h = Dual-sequencer mode. SEQ1 and SEQ2 operate as two 8-state
sequencers.
1h = Cascaded mode. SEQ1 and SEQ2 operate as a single 16-state
sequencer (SEQ).
3-0 RESERVED R 0h Reads return zero. Writes have no effect.
