    Hi, thanks for the reply. I believe I stumbled upon that image when I started the thread. Together with these 2 attached images (from microchip datasheet), I had tried to figure out where exactly the Sampling cap is located (in the multiplexer?, between multiplexer and adc unit? in the adcunit?)

    Currently I believe it may be in the adc, with godone disconnecting it from the multiplexer and connecting it to the successive approximation circuitry (new channel can be selected after godone is set, but sampling of new channel begins only when conversion is complete) .

    I also had a few other questions even though they may have no practical application:

    For example can the sampling cap be connected to a pin (using Ansel) while ADON is off? Does the Sampling Cap retain its charge when ADON is off?


    I guess that led to a useful question as well and I haven't found an answer yet:

    Can internal resistance and capacitance of a pic pin be measured using a voltmeter/LC-meter without destroying the pic?
