Two output channels support stereo operations. Data input is in the form of a 16-bit digital value from the application program via the DMA module or the DAC data and control registers. Data output is an analog voltage, which is proportional to the digital input value. Each output channel provides three voltage outputs: • Positive DAC output • Negative DAC output • Midpoint voltage output (not present on all devices) The midpoint output is an offset voltage level that represents the midpoint of the output voltage range. Figure 33-1 is a simplified block diagram of the Audio DAC. A four-word deep FIFO buffers the data input for each channel. If at any time the FIFO becomes empty (for example, if the DMA module or processor cannot provide data in a timely manner), the DAC accepts alternate data from the DAC Default Data Register (DACxDFLT). This register provides a default input value that represents a “safe” output voltage, which is often the midpoint value or a zero value. The sample rate of the DAC is established by an integer division of the rate of an auxiliary oscillator or system clock by a divider circuit. The divisor ratio is specified by the DAC Clock Divider (DACFDIV<6:0>) Configuration bits in the DAC Control Register (DACxCON).

Section 33. Audio Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) 33.4 MODULE OPERATION Figure 33-2 illustrates the digital-to-analog conversion process. The digital interpolation filter up-samples the input signal to create additional interpolated data points. The over-sampling ratio is 256:1, or 256x the incoming sampling rate. For example, a 100 ksps input signal (the maximum sampling rate) produces 25.6M data points per second. The interpolation filter also eliminates unwanted noise produced by the up-sampling process. The output of the interpolation filter drives the Sigma-Delta modulator, which converts the word output from the interpolation filter into a serial bit stream. The bit stream from the modulator is processed by the reconstruction filter to convert the bit stream to an analog signal. It then performs a low-pass filter to yield the desired voltage levels. The reconstruction filter produces two differential voltage outputs and a midpoint reference: • Positive (voltage level representing the output signal) • Negative (complement of the positive output signal voltage level) • Midpoint (offset voltage level representing the midpoint of the output voltage range) Figure 33-2: Block Diagram of Digital-to-Analog Process CPU DACR Interrupt DACxRDAT FIFO DAC1RM 256*Fs Interpolation Filter (256) Sigma-Delta Modulator Reconstruction Filter Analog Amplifier DAC1RP DA1CRN Right Channel Digital-to-Analog Converter ACLK CLK DIV DACCLK = Fs x 256 DACxDFLT DAC1LM DACFDIV<6:0> Fs 256*Fs Interpolation Filter (256) Sigma-Delta Modulator Reconstruction Filter Analog Amplifier DAC1LP DAC1LN Left Channel Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) DACxLDAT FIFO DACL Interrupt CPU © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc. DS70211B-page 33-7 Audio Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) Fs 33 dsPIC33F Family Reference Manual 33.4.1 Data Format The DAC module accepts 16-bit input data in two formats. Data formatting is controlled by the Data Format Select (FORM) bit in the DAC Control (DACxCON<8>) register. The supported formats are: • 1 = Signed (2’s complement) • 0 = Unsigned If the FORM bit is configured for unsigned data (FORM = 0), the user input data yields the following behavior: • • • • 0xFFFF = Most positive output voltage 0x8000 = Midpoint output voltage 0x7FFF = Value just below midpoint 0x0000 = Minimum output voltage If the FORM bit is configured for signed data (FORM = 1), the user input data yields the following behavior: • • • • 0x7FFF = Most positive output voltage 0x0000 = Midpoint output voltage 0xFFFF = Value just below midpoint 0x8000 = Minimum output voltage 33.4.2 Clock The DAC clock (DACCLK) must be equal to the sampling rate times 256. Assuming a 100 ksps input, the DAC clock rate must be 25.6 MHz (100,000 x 256 = 25,600,000). DACCLK is generated by dividing the high-speed oscillator (auxiliary or system clock) by a specified value. The divisor ratio is specified by clock divider bits (DACFDIV<6:0>) in the DAC Control (DACxCON register<6:0>). The resulting DACCLK must not exceed 25.6 MHz. Consider an application example where the dsPIC® DSC device uses the device FRC as the clock source. The device oscillator pre-PLL divider (N1) and post-PLL divider (N2) are set to divide by 2. For more details on oscillator selection, refer to Section 39. “Oscillator (Part III)” (DS70216). It is desired that the DAC module be configured to output a 8 kHz sampled signal. Therefore, the DAC clock rate must be 256 x 8 kHz = 2.048 MHz. For this example, the dsPIC DSC PLL can be configured to provide a system clock, which is an integral multiple of the DAC clock rate (i.e., 2.048 MHz). The system clock source to the DAC module is designated FVCO and is the output of the PLL before the post-PLL divider (N2). For more details, refer to Figure 39-8: PLL Block Diagram in Section 39. “Oscillator (Part III)” (DS70216). By selecting the value of M to be 40, FVCO is given as shown in Equation 33-1: Equation 33-1: FVCO Equation FVCO = (7.3728 * 106 * 40)/2 = 147.456 * 106 MHz This FVCO value is an integral multiple (2.048 MHz x 72 = 147.456 x 106 MHz) of the required DAC clock value. Setting the SELACLK (ACLKCON<13>) bit to ‘0’ and setting the DACFDIV register value to divide the FVCO clock by 72 will produce the desired DAC clock.

DS70211B-page 33-9 Audio Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) Table 33-2: 33 dsPIC33F Family Reference Manual 33.5 INTERRUPTS AND STATUS The Audio DAC provides two interrupts, one for each channel. Depending on the setting of the interrupt Configuration bits (LITYPE for the left channel and RITYPE for the right channel) in the DAC Status Register (DACxSTAT), the DAC interrupt is triggered by either a “FIFO Empty” or “FIFO Not Full” condition. The FIFO Empty interrupt can be used with the Audio DAC to maximize throughput while minimizing the impact of interrupts on the CPU. The FIFO Empty interrupt is the simplest and preferred interrupt method for use with DMA. The FIFO Not Full interrupt is used in applications without DMA to minimize the occurrence of DAC under run. This interrupt can also be used with DMA, but additional software support is required. The DAC Interrupt Service Routine (ISR) must clear its corresponding interrupt flags (DAC1LIF and DAC1RIF in the IFS4 register). Note: The Audio DAC reads data from FIFO every 256 DAC clock cycles. DAC interrupts occur once the data is read, depending on the status of the FIFO. Each channel includes two status bits to indicate the status of its FIFO, as shown in Table 33-3: Table 33-3: Channel Left Interrupt Status Bits Name(1) Description LFULL (DAC1STAT<9>) Left channel FIFO is full LEMPTY (DAC1STAT<8>) Left channel FIFO is empty Right RFULL (DAC1STAT<1>) Right channel FIFO is full REMPTY (DAC1STAT<0>) Right channel FIFO is empty Note 1: DS70211B-page 33-10 These bits can be read in software to confirm the FIFO status. © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc. Section 33. Audio Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) 33.6 AUDIO DAC OPERATION WITHOUT DMA Example 33-1 demonstrates a typical configuration for the Audio DAC module. In this example, the interrupts for both channels are set to occur every time the corresponding FIFO is not full. When the DAC Enable (DACEN) bit in the DAC Control (DACxCON<15>) register gets set, DAC interrupts are generated for both channels. Since the FIFO is initially empty, the first data value is read from the DAC Default (DACxDFLT) register. For this example, the default is set to a midpoint value of 0x8000. Example 33-1: DAC Operation without DMA DAC1STATbits.ROEN = 1; DAC1STATbits.LOEN = 1; /* Right Channel DAC Output Enabled */ /* Left Channel DAC Output Enabled */ DAC1STATbits.RITYPE = 0; DAC1STATbits.LITYPE = 0; /* Right Channel Interrupt if FIFO is not Full */ /* Left Channel Interrupt if FIFO is not Full */ DAC1CONbits.AMPON = 0; DAC1CONbits.DACFDIV = 0; DAC1CONbits.FORM = 0; /* Amplifier Disabled During Sleep and Idle Modes */ /* Divide Clock by 1 (Assumes Clock is 25.6MHz) */ /* Data Format is Unsigned */ DAC1DFLT = 0x8000; /* Default value set to Midpoint when FORM = 0 */ IFS4bits.DAC1RIF = 0; IFS4bits.DAC1LIF = 0; /* Clear Right Channel Interrupt Flag */ /* Clear Left Channel Interrupt Flag */ IEC4bits.DAC1RIE = 1; IEC4bits.DAC1LIE = 1; /* Right Channel Interrupt Enabled */ /* Left Channel Interrupt Enabled */ DAC1CONbits.DACEN = 1; /* DAC1 Module Enabled */ 33 void__attribute__((interrupt, no_auto_psv))_DAC1LInterrupt(void) { IFS4bits.DAC1LIF = 0; /* Clear Left Channel Interrupt Flag */ DAC1LDAT = MyDataL[0]; /* User Code to Write to FIFO Goes Here */ } Figure 33-3 illustrates how the Audio DAC interacts with the application program to respond to DAC interrupts and transfer data in a timely manner. This example shows a single-word transfer per interrupt. Depending on your particular application, you could choose to write up to four words per interrupt. Note: © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc. A write to the FIFO is ignored, if the FIFO is full or if a write occurs before the DAC is enabled.

When DAC is initialized, DAC Enable (DACEN) bit is set. FIFO is not full, so DAC interrupts are generated for both channels.

Section 33. Audio Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) 33.7 AUDIO DAC OPERATION WITH DMA On some of the dsPIC33F devices, the DMA module can transfer data from the CPU to the Audio DAC without CPU assistance. Refer to the specific dsPIC33F device data sheet to determine if DMA is present on your particular device. For more details on the DMA module, refer to Section 22. “Direct Memory Access (DMA)” (DS70182). When the Audio DAC module uses DMA, it requires one DMA channel for each DAC channel. The DAC channel can be mapped to any available DMA channel. Interaction begins when the DMA receives an interrupt from the Audio DAC. Depending on the setting of the interrupt Configuration bits (LITYPE for the left channel and RITYPE for the right channel) in the DAC Status Register (DACxSTAT), the DMA interrupt is triggered by either a “FIFO Empty” or “FIFO Not Full” condition (see 33.5 “Interrupts and Status”). 33.7.1 DMA Channel to Peripheral Association Setup The DMA channel needs to know which interrupt request to respond to and which peripheral target address to write to for the Audio DAC. The interrupt is identified by the Interrupt Select (IRQSEL<6:0>) bits in the DMA Channel x IRQ Request (DMAxREQ) register (in the DMA module). The write address is identified by DMA Channel X Peripheral Address (DMAxPAD) register (also in the DMA module). Table 33-4 shows the values that should be written to associate a particular peripheral with a given DMA channel. Table 33-4: DMA Channel to Peripheral Association Peripheral to DMA Association DMAxPAD Register Values to Write to Peripheral DAC1 – Right Data Output 1001110 0x03F6 – DAC1RDAT DAC1 – Left Data Output 1001111 0x03F8 – DAC1LDAT 33.7.2 DMA Code Setup Example 33-2 illustrates code for a typical DAC configuration for DMA operation. In this example, the interrupts are set to occur every time the FIFO is empty. When the DAC Enable (DACEN) bit gets set, an interrupt is generated because the FIFO is initially empty. Since the FIFO is empty, the first data value is read from the default register. In this case, the default value is zero. Figure 33-4 illustrates how the Audio DAC interacts with the DMA module to respond to DAC interrupts and transfer data in a timely manner. This example shows a single-word transfer per interrupt. © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc.

Section 33. Audio Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) 33.9 OPERATIONS IN POWER-SAVING MODES The dsPIC33F family of devices has four power modes comprised of one normal (full-power) mode and three power-saving modes invoked by the PWRSAV instruction. Depending on the mode selected, entry into a power-saving mode may also affect the operation of the module. When the Enable Analog Output Amplifier (AMPON) bit in the DAC Control (DACxCON<12>) register is set, the analog circuitry and the analog output amplifier are powered on during Sleep and Stop-in-Idle mode. This configuration keeps the analog output voltage at a known state during Sleep and Stop-in-Idle modes. If the AMPON bit is cleared and the processor enters Sleep mode or Stop-in-Idle mode, the analog circuitry is powered off and held in reset to reduce current consumption. When the output amplifier is powered off, the analog output is in a high-impedance state. In Sleep mode, if the AMPON bit is cleared, the DAC internal state, including the FIFOs (except the SFRs), is reset, the clocks are stopped and the output analog amplifier and associated circuitry are powered down. If the AMPON bit is set, the DAC internal state and the SFRs are maintained, the clocks are stopped and the output analog amplifier and associated circuitry remain powered up. If the Stop-in-Idle Mode (DACSIDL) bit in the DAC Control (DACxCON<13>) register is set when Idle mode is entered, and if the AMPON bit is not set, the DAC internal state (except the SFRs) is reset, the clocks are stopped and the output analog amplifier and associated circuitry is powered down. If the AMPON bit is set, the DAC internal state and the SFRs are maintained, the clocks are stopped and the output analog amplifier and associated circuitry remains powered up. If DACSIDL is not set when Idle mode is entered, the DAC ignores Idle mode and continues running. Note: © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc. If AMPON = 1 and DACEN = 0, reading the FIFO will empty the FIFO. DS70211B-page 33-17 33 Audio Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) The DACEN bit (DACxCON<15>) is cleared when the device enters Sleep mode or Stop-in-Idle mode, regardless of the status of AMPON bit. If the AMPON bit is set before the device enters Sleep mode or Stop-in-Idle mode, the new data can be placed in the FIFOs upon exiting Sleep or Stop-in-Idle. When the DAC is re-enabled, it continues the operation where it left off. REGISTER MAP A summary of the Audio DAC registers is provided in Table 33-5.
