Operation modes

nRF54L15 | nRF54L10 | nRF54L05 Datasheet

The ADC input configuration supports several modes of sampling.

  • One-shot, one channel
  • One-shot, scan (one sample for each channel)
  • Continuous, one channel
  • Continuous, scan
Note: Scan mode and oversampling should not be combined without burst.
  1. The ADC must be enabled and started via the ENABLE register and START task.
  2. At least one channel must be enabled (via the CH[n].CONFIG registers).
  3. Now the ADC can be sampled, by triggering the SAMPLE task.

The ADC indicates a single ongoing conversion via the register STATUS. During scan mode, oversampling, noise shaping, or continuous modes, more than a single conversion takes place in the ADC. As consequence, the value reflected in STATUS register will toggle at the end of each single conversion.
