STM32G4 DAC DMA Callbacks Not Firing (HAL_DAC_ConvCpltCallbackCh1 / HalfCplt)

Question

I'm working with an STM32G431KBUx and trying to output a waveform via DAC1 using DMA and TIM6 as trigger (TRGO). I’ve successfully configured the DAC and DMA using STM32CubeMX.

However, the DMA callbacks HAL_DAC_ConvCpltCallbackCh1 and HAL_DAC_ConvHalfCpltCallbackCh1 never get called.

Here’s what I’ve checked so far:

DMA handle is linked manually:
hdac1.DMA_Handle1 = &hdma_dac1_ch1;
Trigger is set to Timer 6 Trigger Out event.
DMA is configured in Circular Mode.
I'm calling HAL_DAC_Start_DMA(...) with a buffer of 2 * 64 samples (12-bit aligned).
Callback functions are correctly named and defined in main.c:

void HAL_DAC_ConvHalfCpltCallbackCh1(DAC_HandleTypeDef *hdac1) {
// Never called
}
void HAL_DAC_ConvCpltCallbackCh1(DAC_HandleTypeDef *hdac1) {
// Never called
}

After reading STM32G431KB DAC DMA not working - Page 3 - STMicroelectronics Communityin the DMA setup, change Data With for the Peripheral to Word.hthKnarfB

You may find the raw interrupt handler in the *_it.c file which dispatches the irq to HAL. Set a breakpoint there and, if it is hit, follow the path through HAL.

hdac1.DMA_Handle1 = &hdma_dac1_ch1; is should not be needed. See __HAL_LINKDMA in HAL_DAC_MspInit.

How are the DMA settings? Maybe you add the .ioc.
