Nucleo F303 outputs only 2.1V on DAC

Posted on January 02, 2018 at 19:17

Hi,

Using this nucleo board, the DAC outputs only voltage from 0 to 2.1V while VDD is 3.3v.

Where's the trick?

Thanks

Julien

What voltage do you see when you don't connect anything to the pin?

The DAC has no current sourcing ability, perhaps you need to buffer via an op-amp?

Hi Clive,

Thanks for your answer.

Hum... When I connect nothing to the pin, the voltage is 0 - 3.3v.

I dived in the sheet, max current is 100 ÂµA.

With my configuration it is 150ÂµA...

when you adjust the R1 to say 33k, did you get the 3.3V you wanted ?

that works out at 97uA

I am interested to see this result.
