Part Number:TMS320F28069M
Hi, I have used TMS320F28335 in the past and it talks about its ADC module being sequencer based, while the TMS320F28069M I am starting to use now has Start of Conversion (SOC) based ADC, as per its manual. I do not understand the difference in functionality that it creates, could an expert please explain?
It seems to me that the sequencer offers automation in how the user wants to sample the channels, whereas in SOC based system, you have to trigger each channel to sample it. That seems to me as a disadvantage compared to the sequencer. Is this conclusion correct?
Lastly, it appears that the TMS320F280049C has one converter per ADC core and it has 2 ADC cores. So, it has two sample and hold circuits and two converter circuits.
On the other hand the F28069M has two sample and hold circuits, but only one converter circuit.
Does this mean that the F280049C can sample two channels and output digital values faster than the F28069M?
