Measurement Computing CIO-DAC08/16 - Manual (Page 15)

FSV / 65,536 * CODE = OutV or CODE = OutV / FSV * 65,536
For Example:
If the range is 0 to 5V CODE = 2/5 * 65,536
and you desire a 2V output. CODE = 26,214
The BIPOLAR transfer function for the DAC is:
FSV/65,536 * CODE
−
0.5 * FSV or CODE = (OutV + 0.5 * FSV) / FSV * 65,536
For example:
If the range is set to ±10 CODE = (
−
7V + 0.5 * 20) / 20 * 65,536
and you desire a
−
7V output. CODE = 9,830
