8.12.4 VREF

The shared voltage reference module (VREF) in these devices contain a configurable voltage reference buffer which allows users to supply a stable reference to on-board analog peripherals. It also supports bringing in an external reference for applications where higher accuracy is required.

VREF features include:

  • 1.4V and 2.5V user-selectable internal references
  • Internal reference supports full speed ADC operation
  • Support for bringing in an external reference on VREF+/- device pins
  • Requires a decoupling capacitor placed on VREF+/- pins for proper operation. See VREF specification section for more details

For more details, see the VREF chapter of the MSPM33C3x 160-MHz Microcontrollers Technical Reference Manual.
