Legend: Shaded cells are outside of recommended range.
Note 1: The FRC source has a typical TAD time of 1.6 μs for VDD.
2: These values violate the minimum required TAD time.
3: For faster conversion times, the selection of another clock source is recommended.
4: When the device frequency is greater than 1 MHz, the FRC clock source is only recommended if the
conversion will be performed during Sleep.
