Introduction

When designing a system utilizing C2000 real-time MCUs, evaluating the input circuits that are driving the ADC for proper settling is a necessary step. Inadequate settling can lead to a variety of sampling issues, most commonly signal distortion and memory cross-talk. This application report explores the methodology presented in the eight-part video series on ADC input settling by TI Precision Labs: TI Precision Labs - SAR ADC Input Driver Design in the specific context of the ADCs on C2000 real-time MCUs.
