The M5Stack DAC2 I2C Digital-to-Analog Converter is a sophisticated digital-to-analog signal conversion unit that employs the GP8413 solution to ensure high precision and accuracy. This device is capable of linearly converting a 15-bit digital value into two independent analog voltages, selectable between 0-5V or 0-10V ranges. The output voltage error is minimal at only 0.2%, and it boasts an impressive linearity of up to 0.01%. The circuit design is engineered for scalability, featuring a 3-bit hardware address that enables the connection and operation of up to eight devices concurrently.
The DAC2 Unit is equipped with safety measures, including an output short-circuit protection mechanism. This feature ensures that in the event of a short circuit between the output pins and ground, the unit will automatically transition into a protection mode, halting the output to avert any potential damage. The versatility of the DAC2 Unit allows it to be utilized in a multitude of applications such as general signal conversion, motor speed regulation, LED dimming, inverters, power supplies, and industrial analog signal isolation. It stands out as a dependable choice for the conversion of digital signals to analog, with a focus on high precision, reliability, and the ability to expand.
Please note that the DAC2 Unit includes an output short-circuit protection feature for enhanced safety during operation.
