DACDx

*[11:0]

DACDx: These bits set the DACx output voltage according to reference selection
and reference value.
DACx Output voltage (in Volts) = (DAC Count / 4095) * Reference Voltage (in Volts)

REFB_CFG

REFINB Pin Configuration: Setting this bit to ‘1’ configures the DAC external reference pin
for any DAC4-7 as analog input. PIN 39 is REFINB (Port1.4).

0

REFA_CFG

REFINA Pin Configuration: Setting this bit to ‘1’ configures the DAC external reference pin
for any DAC0-3 as analog input. PIN 31 is REFINA (Port2.6).


6.3 – DAC Code Examples

6.3.1 – DAC0 Enabled with Internal Reference and Output Voltage Configured for 50% (1.25V) of Internal
Reference

RPCFG = 0x0000;
DACCFG = 0x0002; //Only DAC0 enabled and internal reference is selected
DACD0 = 0x0800; //DACD0 is set for 50%

6.3.2 – DAC2 Enabled with External Reference And Output Voltage Configured for 25% of External Reference
at REFINA Pin

RPCFG = 0x0001;
DACCFG = 0x0010; //Only DAC2 enabled and external reference is selected
DACD2 = 0x0400; //DACD2 is set for 25%

6.3.3 – DAC6 Enabled with External Reference and Output Voltage Configured for 25% of External Reference
at REFINB Pin

RPCFG = 0x0002;
DACCFG = 0x1000; //Only DAC6 enabled and external reference is selected
DACD6 = 0x0400; //DACD6 is set for 25%
