ADC Clock – clk
ADC
The ADC is provided with a dedicated clock domain. This allows halting the CPU and I/O clocks
in order to reduce noise generated by digital circuitry. This gives more accurate ADC conversion
results.
6.2
Clock Sources
The device has the following clock source options, selectable by Flash Fuse bits as shown
below. The clock from the selected source is input to the AVR clock generator, and routed to the
appropriate modules.
Note:
1. For all fuses “1” means unprogrammed while “0” means programmed.
6.2.1
External Clock
To drive the device from an external clock source, CLKI should be driven as shown in
Figure 6-2on page 24. To run the device on an external clock, the CKSEL Fuses must be programmed to
Figure 6-2.
