Analog input channel would get damaged if 5 volts are applied on AIN0-AIN3 for the VDD of 3.3V ? reason to ask this question is maximum allowed VDD is 7V so all AIN pins should be tolerant to 7V irrespective of VDD ?
Thanks in advance .

Hi Rohan,
The absolute max analog input voltage depends on the VDD supply.
If VDD = 5V, the Max input voltage should not exceed 5.3V
If VDD = 3.3V, the Max input voltage should not exceed 3.6V
Anything higher could potentially damage the device.
Keep in mind this is the absolute max. For the recommended operating conditions, input voltages should be between GND and VDD:
The ADC cannot measure voltages higher than VDD.
The ADC would output the code corresponding to FSR (7FFFh) or the output code corresponding to VDD if the FSR setting is higher (i.e VDD=5V and FSR= ±6.144 V) if the voltage at the input pins is higher than VDD.
Best Regards,
