Associate II

Hi

I m currently implementing a project using  MC Workbench software. There is a DAC Functionality subblock in the COntrol Unit block.  Can you tell me what is this block and why it uses two mcu pins as DAC ? For users which designing a custom board,  what should they do with these pins ?

Thank you

Hello,

As mentioned on left hand box, you can use these Digital to Analog Converter outputs for:
- "Debug" purpose displaying Ia and Ib currents with a scope connected to PC8 and PC9 pins. 
- "OCP" Over Current Protection purpose by generating a voltage level to be used in a comparator.
You can also set it to "Not used" to disable it.

Please go to Firmware documentation for more details.
