It was there to allow the SW to detect whethe or not the external LDO was working, something that never made it into the vault of SW features.

Hello Gerald, Thank you for your reply. Not worried about warranty here. Just checking for unknown dependencies.

Hello, What is the purpose of the resistor divider connected to AIN7? What software is dependent on this, if any? Is this only a convenient connection to quickly test ADC functionality? I find no mention of AIN7 here, e2e.ti.com<http://e2e.ti.com> or on the web that convincingly indicates otherwise. I realize AIN requires 1V8 maximum, hence the divider given the 3V3 input. I'd like to use AIN7 as general purpose ADC of thermistor.
