TLC5602: D/A

Hello Gal,
I am not familiar with RPI3, but the TLC5602 can interface with many different systems.

The datasheet figure 1 shows the timing diagram relationship between clock and data outputs. I think you will want your controller to provide clock, so that it can also maintain sample data timing requirements. Your controller must maintain a clock signal within the constraints of the recommended operating conditions on page 3, basically must be less than 20MHz, duty cycle, etc.

As far as memory, I do not think your system will need sample memory if your controller is able to offload samples at the 20MHz clock rate. Memory would typically be used in systems that over-sample in bursts, or in systems where the processing system is not in lock step with the D/A sub-system.

For layout, components, etc refer to page 8 where we have application information.

Brian

Thanks for your answer,

So, if we understand, we can send data from our micro-controller (from the USB) to the DAC (let us assume that we have serial bridge/TTL that fast enough), all we need to do is just synchronize the clocks without any additional memory before the DAC?

Thanks.
