Hi,
I have a confusion about sampling time and conversion time. In STM32F407, the conversion time for 12 bit resolution of ADC is 12 clock cycles. But there is an option to set the sampling rate at 3 clock cycles. Hence, every three clock cycles, a sample will be taken. But I will have to wait for 12+3=15 clock cycles to assign the converted value to a variable. What will happen to the ADC samples in between this period? Are they lost?
