DAC81416: Linux driver source code

Hi,

Please allow us a day's time for the header files. Also Please find the spi code examples for energia sketch.

In case, you need a generic setting for SPI on any processor. It's as follows:

Mode: Mode-1 (CPOL=0, CPHA=1)
Order: MSB First
CS Polarity: Active Low
Number of Bytes: 3

You can use GPIOs for LDAC and CLR, if needed.
