What issues should be aware of when simulate with SN8P2711A EV-KIT using AD internal reference voltage for AD use?

  1. SN8P2711A EV-KIT is necessary during simulation, SN8P2711A and SN8P2711 have the common EV-KIT; 
  2. The resolution can only achieve 8-bit if you choose internal reference 2V, 3V, 4V of SN8P2711A for AD use; 
  3. In accordance with datasheet description of the EV-KIT connected with the simulator (see as below); There are four jumpers next to the power switch, one of it is AVREFH/VDD,AVREFH is ADC circuit reference high voltage. To short this jumper means connected AVREFH and VDD, to open this jumper means connected it to external voltage. Only when customers use the internal VDD as the ADC reference voltage should user short the jumper, and the remaining cases (internal reference 2V, 3V, 4V and external reference source) should open this jumper; 
  4. Measured AVREFH and VDD pin with the multimeter on the bottom of the two dance-voltage, and toggle switch to the need to set the reference voltage value. If you choose internal 3V, switch (S16) on the SN8P2711 EV-KIT be set appropriately on the corresponding state ( S2, S5 to ON, S1, S3, S4, S6 to OFF when select 3V), adjust the potentiometer, to adjust the AVREFH to 3V; otherwise the program's reference and the actual simulation reference voltage used will be different and cause AD collection value errors; 
  5. For SN8P2711A EV-KIT using method and more information, user can refer to datasheet EV-KIT sections。
