[SAADC] how to measure battery with more precision digits

[CONDITION] 1. R1 = 1.5M, R2 = 430K 2. GAIN = 1/2 3. RESOLUTION = 10bits 4. Single End

[ISSUE DESCRIPTION] 1. If voltage is changed by 0.1V step (4.1V -> 4.0V), the outputs from ADC is ok to distinguish. 2. However, if voltage is changed by 0.01V step (e.g. 4.12V -> 4.11V), the outputs from ADC is overlapped for some range, resulting in ambiguous readings to tell 4.12V from 4.11V, or vise versa.

[QUESTION] How to make SAADC work to get battery voltage with more precision digits: e.g. 4.1V, 4.11V, 4.111V, ....?
