DAC8760: DAC8760 output voltage with ADC input code

Part Number: DAC8760

Hi,

 I am trying to configure the DAC8760 with input ADC input code vs output voltage. I have set 0 - 10V as output. 

Is DAC lineally convert the input code (ADC value ) to output voltage or what is the relation between it.

Any help would be appreciated. 

Thanks

  • Rakesh,

    If you have the output set to the 0V to 10V range, the conversion equation should be

    Output voltage = [(DAC code)/2^16] *10V

    For example, a DAC code of 0x4CCD converts to

    (0x4CCD/2^16)*10V = (19661d / 65536) * 10V = 3V

    Are you having problems setting the device up or getting the correct output?
