11.1.1Description

The GE863-QUAD / PY module provides a Digital to Analog Converter. The signal (named DAC_OUT) is available on BGA Ball #63 of the GE863-QUAD / PY module and on pin 17 of PL104 on EVK2 Board (CS1151).

The on board DAC is a 10 bit converter, able to generate a analogue value based a specific input in the range from 0 up to 1023. However, an external low-pass filter is necessary

Steps

The precision is 10 bits so, if we consider that the maximum voltage is 2V, the integrated voltage could be calculated with the following formula:

Integrated output voltage = 2 * value / 1023

DAC_OUT line must be integrated (for example with a low band pass filter) in order to obtain an analog voltage.
