SAM7X Series [DATASHEET]
6120K–ATARM–11-Feb-14
38.7 ADC Characteristics
Notes: 1. Corresponds to 13 clock cycles at 5 MHz: 3 clock cycles for track and hold acquisition time and 10 clock cycles for
conversion.
2. Corresponds to 15 clock cycles at 8 MHz: 5 clock cycles for track and hold acquisition time and 10 clock cycles for
conversion.
The user can drive ADC input with impedance up to:
 Z
OUT
≤ (SHTIM -470) x 10 in 8-bit resolution mode
 Z
OUT
≤ (SHTIM -589) x 7.69 in 10-bit resolution mode
with SHTIM (Sample and Hold Time register) expressed in ns and Z
OUT
expressed in ohms.
