The ADC peripheral clock (ADCCLK) is provided by PRCM and is used for the sampling clock (SAMPCLK). SOC CLK and HFXT are the clock sources available for ADCCLK, which can support up to 52 MHz. Refer to the device-specific data sheet for supported ADCCLK frequencies. Using SOC CLK, which is the bus clock for all peripherals, is very useful for deterministic start of sampling and simultaneous sampling. Using the HFXT as the clock source for ADCCLK is useful for when a very accurate, low-jitter, sampling period is needed. The ADC clock source can be selected by writing the CONVCTL[17:16] CONCLKSEL bit field.
