ADC Module
Functional
ADC conversion only triggers when sourced from TA0 and TA3 in LPM3/LPM4
If the ADC clock is sourced from ADC12OSC (ADC12CTL1.ADC12SSELx = ADC12OSC), the reference module is not used (REFCTL0.REFON = 0), and the device is in LPM3/LPM4 mode, ADC conversion cannot be triggered when using Timer TB0, TA1 and TA2 (ADC12CTL1.ADC12SHSx).
1. Use Timer TA0 or TA3 to trigger ADC conversion in LPM3/LPM4 mode
OR
2. Configure ADC clock to be sourced from ACLK (ADC12CTL1.ADC12SSELx = ACLK).
OR
3. Use Active/LPM0/LPM1/LPM2 mode
OR
4. Use the internal voltage reference (REFCTL0.REFON = 1)
