  • Page 10: Features

    Features 1.1 Features This EVM features the DAC7741 digital-to-analog converter. The DAC7741 EVM is a simple evaluation module designed for a quick and easy way to evaluate the functionality of the high resolution, single-channel, and parallel input DAC. This EVM features a parallel interface to communicate to any host processor base system.

    The REF102 precision reference derives its power of ±15-V supply through J10 or J7 terminal. The (plus) 15 V connects through J10-1 or J7-2 terminals, while the (minus) -15 V connects through J10-3 or J7-4 terminals. They are both referenced to analog ground through J10-2 and J7-1. The DAC7741 has a REFEN pin to enable the internal reference circuit or disable it and select an external reference source.

  • Page 21: Evm Operation

    This chapter covers in detail the operation of the EVM to provide guidance to the user in evaluating the onboard DAC and how to interface the EVM to a specific host processor. Refer to the DAC7741 data sheet, SBAS248, for information about its parallel interface and other related topics.
  • Page 22: Factory Default Setting

    Factory Default Setting 3.1 Factory Default Setting The EVM board is set to its default configuration from factory as described on the table below to operate in bipolar ±10V mode of operation using the internal reference. Table 3-1. Factory Default Jumper Setting Jumper Reference Function...
  • Page 23: Host Processor Operation

    3.2 Host Processor Operation The host processor basically drives the DAC, so the DACs proper operation depends on the successful configuration between the host processor and the EVM board. In addition, a properly written code is also required to operate the DAC.
  • Page 24: Output Gain Of Two

    Host Processor Operation 3.2.2 Output Gain of Two This configuration allows the DAC output with a gain of two, but is limited to the effective rails of the operational amplifier. When the DAC7741 is configured to operate in bipolar mode, the DAC output must be within the range of 12 V output of the op-amp.
