14.0 FIXED VOLTAGE REFERENCE

(FVR)

The Fixed Voltage Reference, or FVR, is a stable

voltage reference, independent of VDD, with 1.024V,

2.048V or 4.096V selectable output levels. The output

of the FVR can be configured to supply a reference

voltage to the following:

• ADC input channel

• ADC positive reference

• Comparator positive input

• Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC)

The FVR can be enabled by setting the FVREN bit of

the FVRCON register.

14.1 Independent Gain Amplifiers

The output of the FVR supplied to the ADC,

Comparators, and DAC is routed through two

independent programmable gain amplifiers. Each

amplifier can be configured to amplify the reference

voltage by 1x, 2x or 4x, to produce the three possible

voltage levels.

The ADFVR<1:0> bits of the FVRCON register are

used to enable and configure the gain amplifier settings

for the reference supplied to the ADC module. Refer-

ence Section 15.0 “Analog-to-Digital Converter

(ADC) Module” for additional information.

The CDAFVR<1:0> bits of the FVRCON register are

used to enable and configure the gain amplifier settings

for the reference supplied to the DAC and comparator

module. Reference Section 16.0 “Digital-to-Analog

Converter (DAC) Module” and Section 18.0 “Com-

parator Module” for additional information.

14.2 FVR Stabilization Period

When the Fixed Voltage Reference module is enabled, it

requires time for the reference and amplifier circuits to

stabilize. Once the circuits stabilize and are ready for use,

the FVRRDY bit of the FVRCON register will be set. See

Section 29.0 “Electrical Specifications” for the

minimum delay requirement.
