hello

i tried the DAC_SignalsGeneration st exemple and i hear nothing , my clock config and all are so fine, so  anyone could give me a simple working code to hear any signal ? and thnx 🙂

It works fine on my board. Did you press the user button?

Not sure about audio output, I used a scope to test the DAC pins

... and i hear nothing , ...

What do you expect to hear ? The DAC has an output impedance of about 1 Megaohm w/o buffer amp., and 15 kOhm with amp. That is hardly enough to drive anything passive that creates audible sound. Use a scope as clive suggested, or attach an appropriate amplifier circuit.

thank you so much

anyway that appropriate amplifier circuit could make it audible ? if yes then plz provide me any schématics for that amplifier and thnx

I don't want to wade into this too deeply, but doesn't the F4-Discovery have some of this routed through the codec to the audio jack? I guess you'd want to look at the schematic and demo code to see how that's done, and programmed. May be there are some blog, tutorial or videos on doing it?
