Hi,

i'm korean and my english is poor.

how to calculate adc conversion time at 72MHz.

1.ADC maximum clock is 14MHz -> is it right?

2.if i don't set up adc prescaler, ADC work on??

3.at sample time = 55.5cycles

so, one channel conversion time(69.5clk) = sample time(55.5) + conversion time(14) --> right?

Yes.

You must set the prescaler.

If your clock is 72Mhz, set it to 6.

(72 / 6 = 12Mhz, 12Mhz <= 14Mhz)

3.at sample time = 55.5cycles

so, one channel conversion time(69.5clk) = sample time(55.5) + conversion time(14) --> right?

Conversion time = 12.5 cycles.

Total Cycles = Sample Cycles + Conversion Cycles = 55.5 + 12.5 = 68 Cycles = 5.67 us (at 12Mhz)
