    Get DAC Offset Trim

    This function gets the DAC offset trim value.

  void `DAC_lockRegister`(uint32_t base, uint16_t reg)

    Parameters

      - `base`: is the DAC module base address

      - `reg`: is the selected DAC registers

    The reg parameter can be an ORed combination of any of the following values:

    - DAC_LOCK_CONTROL - Lock the DAC control register

    - DAC_LOCK_SHADOW - Lock the DAC shadow value register

    Parameters

      - `base`: is the DAC module base address

    The reg parameter can be an ORed combination of any of the following values:

    - DAC_LOCK_CONTROL - Lock the DAC control register

    - DAC_LOCK_SHADOW - Lock the DAC shadow value register

    - DAC_LOCK_OUTPUT - Lock the DAC output enable/disable register

      Returns true if any of the registers specified are locked, and false if all specified registers aren’t locked.

  void `DAC_tuneOffsetTrim`(uint32_t base, float32_t referenceVoltage)

    Tune DAC Offset Trim

    This function adjusts/tunes the DAC offset trim. The

    referenceVoltage value should be a floating point number in the range specified in the device data manual.
    Parameters

      - `base`: is the DAC module base address

      - `referenceVoltage`: is the reference voltage the DAC module is operating at.

    Note

      Use this function to adjust the DAC offset trim if operating at a reference voltage other than 2.5v. Since this function modifies the DAC offset trim register, it should only be called once after Device_cal. If it is called multiple times after Device_cal, the offset value scaled would be the wrong value.

    Return

      None.
