Output
Register
The D/A converter will convert the D/A output register data to an analog
signal. The register data at address Base + 4 and Base + 5 are used for D/A
channel 1 and Base +6 and Base +7 for D/A channel 2.

Note: The D/A registers are "double buffered" so that the D/A analog output
signals will not updated until the second (high) byte contains data or
written to. This will ensure a single step transition for a D/A conversion.
