An analog comparator is a peripheral that compares two analog voltages and provides a logical output that signals the comparison result. The independent integrated analog comparators can be configured to drive an output or generate an interrupt or ADC event.
The comparator can provide its output to a device pin, acting as a replacement for an analog comparator on the board, or it can be used to signal the application via interrupts or triggers to the ADC to cause it to start capturing a sample sequence. The interrupt generation and ADC triggering logic is separate. This means, for example, that an interrupt can be generated on a rising edge and the ADC triggered on a falling edge.
Each analog comparator supports the following functions:
