49.6.2 Alternate Input Selection Mode
In an Alternate Input Selection mode, the MUXA and MUXB control bits select the channel for
conversion. The ADC completes one sweep using the MUXA selection, and then another sweep
using the MUXB selection, and then another sweep using the MUXA selection, and so on. The
Alternate Input Selection mode is enabled by setting the Alternate Sample bit (ALTS) in the ADC
Control Register 2 (ADxCON2<0>).
The analog input multiplexer is controlled by the AD1CHS123 and AD1CHS0 registers. There
are two sets of control bits, designated as MUXA (CHySA/CHyNA) and MUXB (CHySB/CHyNB),
to select a particular input source for conversion. The MUXB control bits are used in Alternate
Input Selection mode.
Table 49-9: Analog Input Selection
For Alternate Input Selection mode, an ADC interrupt must be generated after an even number
of sample/conversion sequences by programming the Samples Convert Sequences Per
Interrupt bits (SMPI<3:0>). Table 49-10 lists the valid SMPI values for Alternate Input Selection
mode in different ADC configurations.
Table 49-10: Valid SMPI Values for Alternate Input Selection Mode
Example 49-4 shows the code sequence to set up the ADC module for Alternate Input Selection
mode in the 4-channel simultaneous sampling configuration. Figure 49-14 illustrates the ADC
module operation sequence.
