8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

Figure 8-2 depicts a simplified schematic for this design showing the MSP430 ADC inputs and full input conditioning circuitry. The ADC is configured for a bipolar measurement where final conversion result is the differential voltage between the voltage at the positive and negative ADC inputs. The bipolar, GND-referenced input signal must be level-shifted and attenuated by the op amp so that the output is biased to VREF/2 and has a differential voltage that is within the ±VREF/2 input range of the ADC.
