Theory of Operation
Voltage Measurement with the On-chip Analog to Digital Converter (ADC)
The ispPAC-POWR6AT6 has an on-chip analog to digital converter that can be used for measuring the voltages at
the VMON inputs. The ADC is also used in closed loop trimming of DC-DC converters. Close loop trimming is cov-
ered later in this document.
Figure 3-6. ADC Monitoring VMON1 to VMON6
Figure 3-6 shows the ADC circuit arrangement within the ispPAC-POWR6AT6 device. The ADC can measure all
analog input voltages through the multiplexer, ADC MUX. The programmable attenuator between the ADC mux and
VMON pins can be configured as divided-by-3 or divided-by-1 (no attenuation). The divided-by-3 setting is used to
measure voltages from 0V to 6V range and divided-by-1 setting is used to measure the voltages from 0V to 2V
range.
A microcontroller can place a request for any VMON voltage measurement at any time through the I
