Description
The GL865-DUAL V3 provides a Digital to Analog Converter. The signal (named
DAC_OUT) is available on pin
15
of the GL865-DUAL V3.
The on board DAC is a 10 bit converter, able to generate an analogue value based on a
specific input in the range from 0 up to 1023. However, an external low-pass filter is
necessary

Steps
The precision is 10 bits so, if we consider that the maximum voltage is 2V, the integrated
voltage could be calculated with the following formula:
Integrated output voltage = (2 *value) / 1023
DAC_OUT line must be integrated (for example with a low band pass filter) in order to obtain
an analog voltage.
