Article purpose

The purpose of this article is to

  • briefly introduce the DAC peripheral and its main features
  • indicate the level of security supported by this hardware block
  • explain how each instance can be allocated to the three runtime contexts and linked to the corresponding software components
  • explain how to configure the DAC peripheral.

Peripheral overview

The DAC peripheral is a voltage output digital-to-analog converter.

Features

Refer to STM32MP15 reference manuals for the complete list of features, and to the software components, introduced below, to know which features are really implemented.

  • It may be configured in 8- or 12-bit mode (data could be left- or right-aligned)
  • It has two output channels, each with its own converter
  • The dual DAC channel mode could be done independently or simultaneously
  • It has built-in noise and triangle waveform generator and supports triggers for conversions, using: TIM[1], LPTIM[2] or EXTI[3]
  • The DAC output buffer allows a high drive output current
  • It can operate under Normal mode or low-power Sample and Hold mode (uses LSI clock, from RCC[4]).
  • It may be used in conjunction with the DMA[5] controller (with underrun error detection)
  • The common reference voltage, can be provided by either VREFBUF[6] or any other external regulator[7] wired to VREF+ pin.

Security support

The DAC is a non-secure peripheral.

Peripheral usage and associated software

Boot time

The DAC is not used at boot time.

Runtime

Overview

The DAC instances can be allocated to:

  • the Arm® Cortex®-A7 non-secure core to be used under Linux® with the IIO framework

or

The Peripheral assignment chapter describes which peripheral instance can be assigned to which context.

Software frameworks

Cortex-M4

(STM32Cube)
Analog DAC Linux IIO framework STM32Cube DAC driver

Peripheral configuration

The configuration is applied by the firmware running in the context to which the peripheral is assigned. The configuration by itself can be performed via the STM32CubeMX tool for all internal peripherals. It can then be manually completed (especially for external peripherals) according to the information given in the corresponding software framework article.

For the Linux kernel configuration, please refer to DAC device tree configuration and DAC Linux driver articles.
