DAC60096: Where can I find the TI DAC60096EVM GUI installer?

DAC60096: Simultaneous update of several DAC outputs

Alejandro Jimenez Saez
Prodigy 10 points
Part Number: DAC60096

About one year ago, we bought this board: https://www.digikey.de/de/products/detail/texas-instruments/DAC60096EVM/7219320. We have seen that the update of the DACs with the software from the manufacturer takes several seconds. This is not a problem, but we are interested in changing the voltage from several (10) DACs at the same time. It is not important how long it takes to program them (communication from laptop to the DAC board), but the change of the actual voltage in the DAC should be simultaneous (around 1 to 5 ms delay between the first and last DAC would be acceptable).

1 – Do you know if this is possible with this board?

2 – If not, do you recommend us any other board? It should allow us to apply +-10 V at 1 kHz modulation frequency and have at least 12 independent voltage outputs.

Thank you in advance and best regards,

Alejandro

    Hi Alejandro,

    You can use the LDAC pin to trigger all outputs to update at the same time. If LDAC is left high during a DAC write, the output will not update until a falling edge on LDAC. So you should be able to bring LDAC high, update all of the channels you want, and then bring LDAC low to achieve the functionality you want. 

    Best,
