Detailed Description

Linear Technology DC935A Demonstration Board LTC2605: Octal 16-/14-/12-Bit Rail-to Rail DACs in 16-Lead SSOP.

NOTES
  Setup:
    Set the terminal baud rate to 115200 and select the newline terminator.
     The program displays calculated voltages which are based on the voltage
     of the reference used, be it internal or external. A precision voltmeter
     is needed to verify the actual measured voltages against the calculated
     voltage displayed. If an external reference is used, a precision voltage
     source is required to apply the external reference voltage. A precision
     voltmeter is also required to measure the external reference voltage.
     No external power supply is required. Any assembly option may be used:

  Explanation of Commands:
    1- Select DAC: Select one of four DACs to test: A, B, C, D.

     2- Write to DAC input register: Value is stored in the DAC for updating
      later, allowing multiple channels to be updated at once, either
      through a software "Update All" command or by asserting the LDAC# pin.
      User will be prompted to enter either a code in hex or decimal, or a
      voltage. If a voltage is entered, a code will be calculated based on
      the active scaling and reference parameters - ideal values if no
      calibration was ever stored.

     3- Write and Update: Similar to item 1, but DAC is updated immediately.

     4- Update DAC: Copies the value from the input register into the DAC
      Register. Note that a "write and update" command writes the code to
      BOTH the input register and DAC register, so subsequent "update" commands
      will simply re-copy the same data (no change in output).

     5- Power Down DAC: Disable DAC output. Power supply current is reduced. DAC
      code present in DAC registers at time of shutdown are preserved.

USER INPUT DATA FORMAT:
 decimal : 1024
 hex     : 0x400
 octal   : 02000  (leading 0 "zero")
 binary  : B10000000000
 float   : 1024.0
