STM32L475 availability of an internal precision reference voltage for ADC conversion

ST moderator: New question split from this thread:

 

Thanks, that could indeed explain the behavior we are seeing, since we are powering Vdd with 3.3V.

Since the application requires a stable ADC reference, I would like to ask whether the STM32L475 provides any internal precision reference that can be selected as the ADC conversion reference.

    whether the STM32L475 provides any internal precision reference that can be selected as the ADC conversion reference

     

    Yes: the VREFBUF module.

    It is not *selected* as ADC reference: ADC reference is *always* the VREF+ pin. The way how to use the internal VREFBUF is, that you don’t connect external voltage to VREF+ pin and you switch VREFBUF on (see the VREFBUF chapter in Reference Manual).
