ADC t.STAB

Hi,

In RM0008, it talks about waiting t.STAB time after a power on before

reading the ADC's.

What is the value of t.STAB ? I can't find it.

Note - I am repeatedly sampling 3 channels after a wakeup from STOP mode.

I assume that I too have to wait t.STAB in this situation ?

NB. if I don't sleep the CPU, I get more stable readings - I know this

could also be due to noise on power rails... but what do I need to be

doing in the software to ensure a good reading ?

Thanks,

John.

Thanks for the help.

Do you know which data sheet ?

John.

fully turn on the ADC then wait t.stab before reading, as per ref manual indications.
