A.2 Symptoms of Inadequate Settling

Once a voltage has been captured into the S+H capacitor, the ADC will translate this voltage into a digital conversion result during the conversion phase. The CPU can then use this result to control or monitor the system. However, if the captured voltage does not accurately represent the applied voltage due to settling error, the final conversion result will have errors even if the ADC conversion process is perfect.

These settling errors will manifest differently depending on whether the ADC is sampling the same channel repeatedly or scanning through multiple channels in a sequence. The settling errors will also manifest differently depending on the starting voltage on the S+H capacitor at the beginning of the acquisition phase. Some ADC architectural implementations will have a starting S+H voltage close to the previously sampled voltage while other architectures will usually start the acquisition phase with a discharged S+H capacitor.
