STM8L/STM8AL ADC internal hardware

STM8L/STM8AL microcontrollers can include an ADC. This ADC peripheral is used to

measure analog signals from external signal sources.

1.1

ADC principle

The ADC in STM8L/STM8AL microcontrollers is a switched-capacitor type. This ADC type

uses the SAR (successive approximation register) principle, by which the conversion is

performed in several steps. The number of conversion steps is equal to the number of bits in

the ADC converter.

The following figures (Figure 1 to Figure 6) explain the principle of ADC operation. They are

based on a 10-bit ADC example (whereas STM8L/STM8AL devices contain a 12-bit ADC).

The example given below shows only the first steps of approximation but the process

continues till the LSB is reached.
