The AT90PWM216/316 features a 10-bit successive approximation ADC. The ADC is connected to an 15-channel
Analog Multiplexer which allows eleven single-ended input. The single-ended voltage inputs refer to 0V (GND).
The device also supports 2 differential voltage input combinations which are equipped with a programmable gain
stage, providing amplification steps of 14dB (5x), 20 dB (10x), 26 dB (20x), or 32dB (40x) on the differential input
voltage before the A/D conversion. On the amplified channels, 8-bit resolution can be expected.
The ADC contains a Sample and Hold circuit which ensures that the input voltage to the ADC is held at a constant
level during conversion. A block diagram of the ADC is shown in
Figure 20-1.The ADC has a separate analog supply voltage pin, AV
CC. AVCC must not differ more than ± 0.3V from VCC. See
Internal reference voltages of nominally 2.56V or AV
CC are provided On-chip. The voltage reference may be exter-
nally decoupled at the AREF pin by a capacitor for better noise performance.
