Part Number: DAC81416EVM
Hi,
Can I use DXP with any of the below parts:
1. DAC81416
2. DAC71416
3. DAC61416
If not, can I use the DACx1416 EVM GUI to give a custom code?
Thanks,
Venkata

Hi Venkata,
Right now DXP is only used to support our legacy DAC EVMs. Most of the new devices are supported by the USB-2-ANY platform with their own stand-alone GUIs. This is the case for the devices you have inquired about.
On the product folder for the EVM (http://www.ti.com/tool/dac81416evm) you can find the GUI download link near the bottom of the page.
You can use the EVM GUI in either a block-diagram or direct register access fashion to interact with the device registers, including setting the DAC output codes.
Hi Duke,
Thanks for the quick reply Kevin.
Is the EVM GUI capable of accepting a file with codes/volts and read them and generate Analog output depending on the codes/volts in the file in a periodic fashion?
Thanks,

Venkata,
We have not implemented such a feature in our newer GUIs as most of the use-cases in the past with DXP were simple DC evaluation situations, so the capability seemed like a bit of an overkill.
Most likely the path of least resistance to get something like this setup would be to use one of the TI LaunchPads with some Energia code to directly interact with the device SPI bus.
