Yes, I see that now but contradictory to this diagram, the datasheet also states that the output of the FVR can be configured to supply a reference voltage to the ADC input channel:

and this is supported in the FRVCON register (bits 1-0) regarding the relevant ADC FVR buffer gain:

Which one is to be believed?
