LPCOMP: start-up time and REFSEL while running

[Tobias Schneider]

Hi,

two quick questions (nRF52832):

1. What is the value of t_LPCOMP,STARTUP (I didn't find it in the PS).

2. Can PSEL be modified while LPCOMP is running? What is the expected delay until the output is stable again?

Regards Tobias

Hi,

My apologies for the long wait. Busy days here at Nordic.

1. The value of nRF52832's t_LPCOMP,STARTUP is 25us. This is the time delay from the LPCOMP is started until the READY event is generated. However, please be aware of this errata: [76] LPCOMP: READY event is set sooner than it should. This implies that the comparator may need another 115us before it really can be trusted. A firmware workaround for this is suggested in the link above.
2. No it can't. LPCOMP (and all other peripherals) shall be stopped before modifying PSEL or any other configuration register.
