47. DAC – Digital-to-Analog Converter
47.1 Overview
The Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) converts a digital value to a voltage. The DAC Controller controls
two DACs, which can operate either as two independent DACs or as a single DAC in differential mode.
Each DAC is 12-bit resolution and is capable of converting up to 1,000,000 samples per second (MSPS).
47.2 Features
Two independent DACs or single DAC in differential mode
DAC with 12-bit resolution
Integrated or Standalone filters with 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, or 32x oversampling rate (OSR)
Up to 1MSPS conversion rate
Hardware support for 16-bit using dithering
Multiple trigger sources
High-drive capabilities
DAC0 used as internal input
DMA support
