Datasheet
■ Converter uses two external reference signals (VREFA+ and VREFA-) or VDDA and GNDA as the
voltage reference
■ Power and ground for the analog circuitry is separate from the digital power and ground
■ Efficient transfers using Micro Direct Memory Access Controller (µDMA)
– Dedicated channel for each sample sequencer
– ADC module uses burst requests for DMA
■ Global Alternate Clock (ALTCLK) resource or System Clock (SYSCLK) can be used to generate
ADC clock
18.1 Block Diagram
The TM4C129XNCZAD microcontroller contains two identical Analog-to-Digital Converter modules.
These two modules, ADC0 and ADC1, share the same 24 analog input channels. Each ADC module
operates independently and can therefore execute different sample sequences, sample any of the
analog input channels at any time, and generate different interrupts and triggers. Figure
18-1 on page 1201 shows how the two modules are connected to analog inputs and the system bus.
