Synchronous
LDAC
The DAC registers are updated after new data is read in.
LDAC
can be permanently low or pulsed.
Asynchronous
LDAC
The outputs are not updated at the same time that the input
registers are written to. When
LDAC
goes low, the DAC
registers are updated with the contents of the input register.
The
LDAC
register gives the user full flexibility and control over
the hardware
LDAC
pin (and software
LDAC
on the 10-lead
parts that do not have the hardware
LDAC
pin—see Table 13).
This register allows the user to select which combination of
channels to simultaneously update when the hardware
LDAC
pin is executed. Setting the
LDAC
bit register to 0 for a DAC
channel means that the update of this channel is controlled by
the
LDAC
pin. If this bit is set to 1, this channel synchronously
updates; that is, the DAC register is updated after new data is
read in, regardless of the state of the
LDAC
pin. The device
effectively sees the
LDAC
pin as being pulled low. See Table 14
for the
LDAC
register mode of operation. This flexibility is
useful in applications when the user wants to simultaneously
update select channels while the rest of the channels are
synchronously updating.
Writing to the DAC using Command 110 loads the 4-bit
LDAC
register [DB3:DB0]. The default for each channel is 0; that is,
the
LDAC
pin works normally. Setting the bits to 1 means that
the DAC register is updated, regardless of the state of the
LDAC
pin. See Figure 68 for the contents of the input shift register
during the
LDAC
register setup command.
