Component Name - Name of the component.
Trigger configuration - Measurement trigger configuration. This group allows selection of a module for hardware triggering of a ADC module. In case that no module is selected for hardware triggering, 'Software' triggering is selected in ADC module.

  The following items are available only if the group is enabled (the value is "Used"):
  - PDB - Inherited component for configuration of PDB module (for details about settings see Component Inheritance & Component Sharing).
  - Trigger settings - Trigger settings of PDB module. This group allows to set parameters for triggering of ADC module.
    - Trigger mode - If 'Continuous mode' is set - set of PDB trigger(s) will continuously trigger ADC module according to PDB trigger setting.
      If 'One-shot' mode is set, only one set of PDB trigger(s) is enabled.
    - Trigger int. service/event - Support of interrupt service. If this property is set to "Enabled", the component functionality depends on the interrupt service and will not operate if the CPU interrupts are disabled.
