SAADC one-shot mode

[SAM.MAO]

Hi everyone,

Recently, I used the nrf52832 learning board to learn SDK13.0.0, when I see SAADC, tell the truth, this exampe is a bit difficult for me to understand. My question is:

1. How to implement SAADC one-shot mode?
2. What is the maximum sampling frequency, is there any delay in operation, can it achieve 200ns sampling time?

Thank you very much!

Best Regards!

Hi Sam,

1. You can read about how to configure one-shot mode in the SAADC documentation.
2. The maximum sampling frequency depends on the configured aquisition time, which is configurable from 3-40 us. Sample time of 200 ns is not possible. With lowest aquisition time, the maximum sample frequency (f_SAMPLE) is 200 kHz:

f_SAMPLE = 1/(t_ACQ,10k + t_CONV) = 1/(3 us + 2 us) = 1/(5 us) = 200 kHz.

Best regards,

Thank you anyway!
