I have problems with your new DAC80501.
My layout is is the tiny package with 8 pins, it is soldered OK. I already exchanged the device, but the same result.
I am using the SPI-Bus.
I can switch the ref- voltage on and off, this means, my spi bus is correct:
code: 0x30 0x01 0x00 and 0x30 0x00 0x00 works great.
But I am not able to output any data!
I tested this with a second device, same behaviour.
Code for output data: 0x08 0x?? 0x??, where ? is the hex value to be outputted.
I thing the devices I got do not work.
Or what else is to be set???
I made software reset and checked all registers, anyway never any ADC output but 0V.
Tests:
When I connect the output pin over a resistor (5kOhm) with Vref (2.5V) the output stays at 0V; This is correct.
When I disable the chip, set to power down, the output is internally connected with 1kOhm to GND.
This is correct, because when I connect then the output over 5KOhm from Vref (2.5V) the output is about 0.4V this means soldering is OK.
