Part Number: MSP432P401R
Hello friends! Sorry beforehand if I am asking something silly, I am new to programming and at all, I am a pianist. So electronics is my self-learnt thing and of course I suck in math.
So I have been reading the manual on the ADC14 in MSP432 mcus. The manual says, that in active mode, the maximum speed is 1Msps. Later, the manual explains how to adjust sampling time, and how to calculate the Total Sampling Time of a single conversion. Approximately something like sampling time+16 clock cycles for the actual conversion. Now, could anybody please explain, how this maximum speed of 1Msps and Total Sampling Time are related? Does that "maximum speed" thing mean that my Total Sampling Time must be no shorter, than 0,000001s? Or does it mean, that my Total Sampling Time can be as short as I wish, but I must make no more, than 1000000 of conversions per second?
I understand that apparently it is something very obvious and simple, but since I am a musician I really suck. So please don't get angry at my stupidness and I will say many thanks for helping me to rectify my brains here :)
