2.3 Built-in Power Supply and Voltage Reference

The VREF module for the MSPM33C family is a shared voltage reference module that can be leveraged by a variety on on-board analog peripherals.

The VREF module features include:

  • 1.4V and 2.5V user-selectable internal references.
  • Support for receiving external reference on the VREF+ and VREF- device pins.
  • Sample and hold mode support VREF operation down to STANDBY operating mode.
  • Internal reference supports for ADC and COMP.

When using the internal VREF, TI recommends connecting a decoupling capacitor on the reference pins with a value based on the voltage source (see Figure 2-2).
