Bit 14 RST_SEQ1 / STRT_CAL. Reset Sequencer/Start Calibration
Case: Calibration Disabled (Bit 3 of ADCTRL1) = 0
Writing a 1 to this bit will reset the sequencer immediately to an initial “pretrig-
gered” state, i.e., waiting for a trigger at CONV00. A currently active conver-
sion sequence will be aborted.
0 No action
1 Immediately reset sequencer to state CONV00
Case: Calibration Enabled (Bit 3 of ADCTRL1) = 1
Writing a 1 to this bit will begin the converter calibration process.
0 No action
1 Immediately start calibration process
Bit 13 SOC_SEQ1. Start-of-conversion (SOC) trigger for Sequencer 1 (SEQ1). This
bit can be set by the following triggers:
- S/W – Software writing a 1 to this bit
- EVA – Event Manager A
- EVB – Event Manager B (only in cascaded mode)
- EXT – External pin (i.e., the ADCSOC pin)
When a trigger occurs, there are 3 possibilities:
Case 1: SEQ1 idle and SOC bit clear
SEQ1 starts immediately (under arbiter control). This bit is set and cleared, al-
lowing for any “pending” trigger requests.
Case 2: SEQ1 busy and SOC bit clear
Bit is set signifying a trigger request is pending. When SEQ1 finally starts after
completing current conversion, this bit will be cleared.
Case 3: SEQ1 busy and SOC bit set
Any trigger occurring in this case will be ignored (lost).
0 Clears a pending SOC trigger.
Note: If the sequencer has already started, this bit will automatical-
ly be cleared, and hence, writing a zero will have no effect; i.e., an
already started sequencer cannot be stopped by clearing this bit.
1 Software trigger – Start SEQ1 from currently stopped position (i.e.,
Idle mode)
