3. TECHNICAL BRIEF
3.4.9 GPADC(General Purpose ADC) and AUTOADC2
The GPADC consists of a 14 input MUX and an 8-bit ADC. The analog input signal is selected with the
MUX and converted in the ADC.
The GPADC has a built in controller, AUTOADC2, which is able to operate in the background without
software intervention. The AUTOADC2 periodically measures the battery voltage or current. Figure
shows the schematic of GPADC part. The GPADC channel spec is as following Table.
