Using the ADC Interrupt Flag as a trigger source makes the ADC start a new conversion as soon

as the ongoing conversion has finished. The ADC then operates in Free Running mode, con-

stantly sampling and updating the ADC Data Register. The first conversion must be started by

writing a logical one to the ADSC bit in ADCSRA. In this mode the ADC will perform successive

conversions independently of whether the ADC Interrupt Flag, ADIF is cleared or not.

If Auto Triggering is enabled, single conversions can be started by writing ADSC in ADCSRA to

one. ADSC can also be used to determine if a conversion is in progress. The ADSC bit will be

read as one during a conversion, independently of how the conversion was started.

Prescaling and

Conversion Timing

Figure 100. ADC Prescaler

By default, the successive approximation circuitry requires an input clock frequency between 50

kHz and 200 kHz to get maximum resolution. If a lower resolution than 10 bits is needed, the

input clock frequency to the ADC can be higher than 200 kHz to get a higher sample rate.

The ADC module contains a prescaler, which generates an acceptable ADC clock frequency

from any CPU frequency above 100 kHz. The prescaling is set by the ADPS bits in ADCSRA.

The prescaler starts counting from the moment the ADC is switched on by setting the ADEN bit

in ADCSRA. The prescaler keeps running for as long as the ADEN bit is set, and is continuously

reset when ADEN is low.

When initiating a single ended conversion by setting the ADSC bit in ADCSRA, the conversion

starts at the following rising edge of the ADC clock cycle. See “Differential Gain Channels” on

page 209 for details on differential conversion timing.

A normal conversion takes 13 ADC clock cycles. The first conversion after the ADC is switched

on (ADEN in ADCSRA is set) takes 25 ADC clock cycles in order to initialize the analog circuitry.

The actual sample-and-hold takes place 1.5 ADC clock cycles after the start of a normal conver-

sion and 13.5 ADC clock cycles after the start of a first conversion. When a conversion is

complete, the result is written to the ADC Data Registers, and ADIF is set. In single conversion

mode, ADSC is cleared simultaneously. The software may then set ADSC again, and a new

conversion will be initiated on the first rising ADC clock edge.

When Auto Triggering is used, the prescaler is reset when the trigger event occurs. This assures

a fixed delay from the trigger event to the start of conversion. In this mode, the sample-and-hold

takes place 2 ADC clock cycles after the rising edge on the trigger source signal. Three addi-

tional CPU clock cycles are used for synchronization logic. When using Differential mode, along

with Auto triggering from a source other than the ADC Conversion Complete, each conversion
