VDAC

Detailed Description

Digital to Analog Voltage Converter (VDAC) Peripheral API.

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

The following steps are necessary for basic operation:

Clock enable:

Initialize the VDAC with default settings and modify selected fields:

// Set prescaler to get 1 MHz VDAC clock frequency.
vdacInit. prescaler = VDAC_PrescaleCalc (1000000, true , 0);
VDAC_Init (VDAC0, &vdacInit);
vdacChInit. enable = true ;
VDAC_InitChannel (VDAC0, &vdacChInit, 0);

Perform a conversion:

VDAC_ChannelOutputSet (VDAC0, 0, 250);
Note
The output stage of a VDAC channel consists of an on-chip operational amplifier (OPAMP) in the OPAMP module. This OPAMP is highly configurable; and to exploit the VDAC functionality fully, configure the OPAMP using the OPAMP API. Using the OPAMP API also loads OPAMP calibration values. The default (reset) settings of OPAMP is sufficient for many applications.

uint32_t VDAC_PrescaleCalc ( uint32_t vdacFreq,
bool syncMode,
uint32_t hfperFreq
)

Calculate the prescaler value used to determine VDAC clock.

The VDAC clock is given by the input clock divided by the prescaler+1.

VDAC_CLK = IN_CLK / (prescale + 1)

The maximum VDAC clock is 1 MHz. The input clock is HFPERCLK/HFPERCCLK when VDAC synchronous mode is selected, or an internal oscillator of 10 MHz +/- 20% when asynchronous mode is selected.

Note
If the requested VDAC frequency is low and the maximum prescaler value can't adjust the actual VDAC frequency lower than requested, the maximum prescaler value is returned resulting in a higher VDAC frequency than requested.
Parameters
[in] vdacFreq VDAC frequency target. The frequency will automatically be adjusted to be below maximum allowed VDAC clock.
[in] syncMode Set to true if you intend to use VDAC in synchronous mode.
[in] hfperFreq Frequency in Hz of HFPERCLK/HFPERCCLK oscillator. Set to 0 to use the currently defined HFPERCLK/HFPERCCLK clock setting. This parameter is only used when syncMode is set to true.
Returns
A prescaler value to use for VDAC to achieve a clock value less than or equal to vdacFreq .

void VDAC_Reset ( VDAC_TypeDef * vdac )
