23.7.2 Analog Noise Canceling Techniques
Digital circuitry inside and outside the device generates EMI which might affect the accuracy of analog measure-
ments. If conversion accuracy is critical, the noise level can be reduced by applying the following techniques:
1. Keep analog signal paths as short as possible. Make sure analog tracks run over the analog ground
plane, and keep them well away from high-speed switching digital tracks.
2. The AVCC pin on the device should be connected to the digital V
CC
supply voltage via an LC network as
shown in Figure 22-9.
3. Use the ADC noise canceler function to reduce induced noise from the CPU.
4. If any ADC port pins are used as digital outputs, it is essential that these do not switch while a conversion
is in progress.
