How to estimate the total ADC conversion time?  Issue Date:2020-04-13

The total ADC conversion time follows the equation below:

TADC = TSMP + Tconv

Where

TADC = total conversion time

TSMP = sampling time

Tconv = conversion time = 1.625us 

The sampling time follows the equation below:

275-1  where FADCAQT= Fsys

With the condition Fsys = 16MHz,

275-2

The ADC controller supports continuous conversion mode and interrupt conversion mode, and the specific calculation formula is detailed below.

1. Continuous conversion mode

The total ADC conversion time is

275-3

Thus, the ADC conversion rate is 500 kHz.

2. Interrupt conversion mode

Setting ADC converting software start trigger bit and waiting for ADC flag to be set requires about 9 cycles, as shown in the figure below.

275-4

The total ADC conversion time is

275-5

Thus, the ADC conversion rate is 390 kHz.
