10 Analog-to-Digital Converter
The A/D converter system uses an all capacitive charge redistribution technique to convert analog sig-
nals to digital values. The MC68HC11A8 A/D system is an 8-channel, 8-bit, multiplexed-input, succes-
sive-approximation converter and is accurate to ±1 least significant bit (LSB). It does not require
external sample and hold circuits because of the type of charge redistribution technique used.
Dedicated lines V and V provide the reference supply voltage inputs. Refer to the A/D converter
RH
RL
block diagram.
A multiplexer allows the single A/D converter to select one of 16 analog signals, as shown in the ADCTL
register description.
