DAC80501: Linux Driver

DAC80501: Linux driver plans?

To ask a follow up question: does TI have any plans to develop a Linux driver for this chip?  A driver for the Zephyr project already has been written: github.com/.../dac_dacx0508.c.

    Hi Greg,

    No, we do not have any plans to develop Linux drivers. The DACx0508 and DACx0501 have a very similar register structure. You could easily modify the driver you shared to work for the DACx0501 if you plan to use it in SPI mode.  

    You can see that the DAC80501 register map is just a subset of the DAC80508:

    Best,
