The SYSMON is a precision analog measurement system based on a 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with an LSB size approximately equal to 1 mV. To achieve the best possible performance and accuracy with all measurements (both on-chip and external), several dedicated pins for the ADC reference and power supply are provided. When connecting these pins, follow the guidelines in this chapter to ensure the best possible performance from the ADC. This chapter outlines the basic design guidelines to consider as part of the requirements for board design.
