PRODUCTION DATA
The device includes a 2.5-V internal reference. The internal reference is externally available at the REF-OUT pin. A 100-pF to 10-nF capacitor is recommended between the reference output and GND for noise filtering. The internal reference is a bipolar transistor-based, precision band-gap voltage reference. The output current is limited by design to approximately 100 mA.
The internal reference drives all temperature sensors. When connecting the REF-OUT pin to the REF-DAC pin, the internal reference functions as the DAC reference.
The ADC-REF-IN/CMP pin has a dual function. When an external reference is connected to this pin, the external reference is used as the ADC reference. When a compensation capacitor (4.7 µF, typical) is connected between this pin and AGND, the internal reference is used as the ADC reference. When using an external reference to drive the ADC, the ADC-REF-INT bit in AFE configuration register 0 must be cleared (0) to turn off the ADC reference buffer. When using the internal reference to drive the ADC, the ADC-REF-INT bit in AFE configuration register 0 must be set to 1 to turn on the ADC reference buffer.
