DAC - Digital to Analog Converter

Description

Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) Peripheral API.

This module contains functions to control the DAC peripheral of Silicon Labs 32-bit MCUs and SoCs. The DAC converts digital values to analog signals at up to 500 ksps with 12-bit accuracy. The DAC is designed for low-energy consumption and can also provide very good performance.

Function Documentation

◆ DAC_Enable()

void DAC_Enable ( DAC_TypeDef * dac,
unsigned int ch,
bool enable
)

Enable/disable the DAC channel.

Parameters
[in] dac A pointer to the DAC peripheral register block.
[in] ch A channel to enable/disable.
[in] enable true to enable DAC channel, false to disable.

◆ DAC_Init()

void DAC_Init ( DAC_TypeDef * dac,
const DAC_Init_TypeDef * init
)

Initialize DAC.

Initializes common parts for both channels. In addition, channel control configuration must be done. See DAC_InitChannel() .

Note
This function will disable both channels prior to configuration.
Parameters
[in] dac A pointer to the DAC peripheral register block.
[in] init A pointer to the DAC initialization structure.

◆ DAC_InitChannel()

void DAC_InitChannel ( DAC_TypeDef * dac,
const DAC_InitChannel_TypeDef * init,
unsigned int ch
)

Initialize DAC channel.

Parameters
[in] dac A pointer to the DAC peripheral register block.
[in] init A pointer to the DAC initialization structure.
[in] ch A channel number to initialize.

◆ DAC_ChannelOutputSet()

void DAC_ChannelOutputSet ( DAC_TypeDef * dac,
unsigned int channel,
uint32_t value
)

Set the output signal of a DAC channel to a given value.

This function sets the output signal of a DAC channel by writing value to the corresponding CHnDATA register.

Parameters
[in] dac A pointer to the DAC peripheral register block.
[in] channel A channel number to set the output.
[in] value A value to write to the channel output register CHnDATA.

◆ DAC_PrescaleCalc()

uint8_t DAC_PrescaleCalc ( uint32_t dacFreq,
uint32_t hfperFreq
)

Calculate prescaler value used to determine the DAC clock.

The DAC clock is given by: HFPERCLK / (prescale ^ 2). If the requested DAC frequency is low and the maximum prescaler value can't adjust the actual DAC frequency lower than the requested DAC frequency, the maximum prescaler value is returned resulting in a higher DAC frequency than requested.

Parameters
[in] dacFreq DAC frequency wanted. The frequency will automatically be adjusted to be below the maximum allowed DAC clock.
[in] hfperFreq Frequency in Hz of the reference HFPER clock. Set to 0 to use the currently defined HFPER clock setting.
Returns
Prescaler value to use for DAC to achieve a clock value <= dacFreq .

◆ DAC_Reset()

void DAC_Reset ( DAC_TypeDef * dac )

Reset DAC to the same state that it was in after a hardware reset.

Parameters
[in] dac A pointer to the ADC peripheral register block.

uint32_t value
)
inline

Set the output signal of DAC channel 0 to a given value.

This function sets the output signal of DAC channel 0 by writing value to the CH0DATA register.

Parameters
[in] dac Pointer to DAC peripheral register block.
[in] value Value to write to the channel 0 output register CH0DATA.

◆ DAC_Channel1OutputSet()
