DAC Drivers

The Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) converts a digital value to a voltage. The conversion range is between GND and the selected reference voltage.

The following driver variants are available:

  • doc_driver_dac_init : Init driver initializing the DAC hardware as specified by the user in START.

  • DAC Basic Driver : Provides basic functionality like:
    • Initializing the DAC as specified by the user in START

    • Starting DAC conversion

DAC Basics and Best Practice

Multiple resolutions may be supported by the DAC, lower resolution can reduce the conversion time or save power, but lose accuracy.

Multiple reference voltages may be supported by the DAC, both internal and external. The reference voltage have an impact on the accuracy and conversion range, and should be selected to cover the full range of the desired output.
