Product data sheet
7.3 D/A conversion
The third byte sent to a PCA9691 is stored in the DAC data register and is converted to
the corresponding analog voltage using the on-chip DAC. This DAC consists of a resistor
divider chain connected to the external reference voltage (pin VREF) with 256 taps and
selection switches. The tap-decoder switches one of these taps to the DAC output line
(see
The analog output voltage is buffered by an auto-zeroed unity gain amplifier. Setting the
analog output enable flag of the control register switches this buffer amplifier on or off. In
the active state the output voltage is held until a further data byte is sent.
