Can you actually get back all of those bits?   How many samples would you
need?   My current use case for the STM32 ADC is to track battery voltage
and maybe 6 bits is enough but if I can get to 12 with a software-only fix
I'll take it.  Batteries volts charge slowly so I'd have time to take many
samples.   It's a rather mundane application.  Controlling a battery
powered motor and I can't let theLiPo battery dichange below a limit so I'm
sampling voltage at 1Hz.   Got a link to or the name of the app note?
