4 Time-Division Multiplexing of the ADC to Achieve Additional Channel Acquisition

Because the battery voltage changes slowly, the battery voltage acquisition interval can be long. During idle time, the ADC can be used by software to acquire other analog signals. When measuring these other signals, the ADC can use the battery voltage as a reference voltage, which can increase the measurement range compared with 1.5-V reference. In addition, the 1.5-V reference voltage can be disabled to reduce power consumption. However, using the battery as a reference can result in lower accuracy that using the 1.5-V reference.
