1 Overview
The DAC53701EVM is an easy-to-use platform to evaluate the functionality and performance of the DAC53701
and DAC43701 commercial devices. This EVM is also designed to evaluate the automotive-version devices,
DAC53701-Q1 and DAC43701-Q1.
The 10-bit DAC53701 and 8-bit DAC43701 (DACx3701) are a pin-compatible family of buffered voltage-output
digital-to-analog converters (DACs). These devices have nonvolatile memory (NVM), an internal reference, and
a PMBus
™
compatible I
2
C interface. The DACx3701 operate with either an internal reference or the power
supply as a reference, and provide full-scale output of 1.8 V to 5.5 V. The devices communicate through the I
2
C
interface. These devices support I
2
C standard mode (100 kbps), fast mode (400 kbps), and fast mode plus (1
Mbps). The DACx3701 are feature rich, and include features such as PMBus voltage margin commands (for
example,
turn on/off
,
margin high or low
, and more), digital slew rate control, user-programmable power up to
high impedance, a standalone waveform generator (square, ramp, and sawtooth), a medical alarm tone
generator (low, medium, and high priority), and a dedicated feedback pin. The EVM provides the GPIO and I
2
C
programming interface using a PC-based graphical user interface (GUI).
