5 Pre-Sampling VREFLO

Another strategy for mitigating memory cross-talk is to add a sample of a fixed voltage immediately before sampling the channel which exhibits poor settling performance. This will result in settling error that is at least deterministic.

Since almost all C2000 based MCUs include an internal connection to VREFLO (0V) in the ADC channel mux, sampling VREFLO is a convenient and effective way to sample a fixed voltage. Therefore, adding sampling slots between channels that are experiencing memory cross-talk and sampling an internal VREFLO connection in these slots is a good memory cross-talk mitigation strategy on C2000 MCU devices (assuming that re-designing the ADC driving circuit for adequate settling performance is not feasible).

The subsequent sections will further describe how and why to insert samples of VREFLO into the sampling slots between normal conversions to help mitigate memory cross-talk. Quantification of the systematic settling error that results will also be discussed as well as ways to further mitigate this resulting error (gain error compensation).
