Frequently asked questions

What is the recommended ADC sample time setting?

The recommended setting is 80 clock cycles as a compromise between speed and accuracy.

Which ADC bit mode is recommended for bigger screen applications?

The 12-bit resolution is recommended for bigger screen applications to achieve sufficient touch resolution.

What settling time is required for 1-5 nF capacitors?

1-5 nF capacitors require around 500 µs settling time.
