Interfacing With Adc and Dac

The document discusses interfacing a DAC0808 digital-to-analog converter and PIC18F458 analog-to-digital converter with a PIC18 microcontroller. It provides details on the features and operation of the DAC0808 8-bit DAC, including its full-scale current match, fast settling time, and low power consumption. It also describes interfacing the DAC to a PIC18 by converting its digital output to voltage using an output resistor. Additionally, it outlines the features of the PIC18F458's 10-bit ADC, such as its input channels, control registers, and use of ADCON0 and ADCON1 to select the channel and conversion clock.

INTERFACING WITH ADC AND DAC

DAC(digital to analog converter) 0808 with Interfacing with PIC 18


The digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is a device widely used to convert digital pulses to
analog signals.

• The DAC0808 is an 8-bit monolithic digital-to-analog converter (DAC).

• featuring a full scale output current settling time of 150 ns while dissipating only 33
mW with ±5V supplies.

• No reference current (IREF) trimming is required for most applications since the full
scale output current is typically ±1 LSB of 255 IREF/256.

• Relative accuracies of better than ±0.19% assure 8-bit monotonicity and linearity while
zero level output current of less than 4 µA provides 8-bit zero accuracy for IREF≥2 mA.

• The power supply currents of the DAC0808 is independent of bit codes, and exhibits
essentially constant device characteristics over the entire supply voltage range.

Features
 Relative accuracy: ±0.19% error maximum

 Full scale current match: ±1 LSB typ

 Fast settling time: 150 ns typ

 Noninverting digital inputs are TTL and CMOS compatible

 High speed multiplying input slew rate: 8 mA/µs

 Power supply voltage range: ±4.5V to ±18V

 Low power consumption: 33 mW @ ±5V

Interfacing of DAC to PIC 18

• In the DAC0808, the digital inputs are converted to current (Iout), and by connecting a
resistor to the Iout pin, we convert the result to voltage.
• The total current provided by the Iout pin is a function of the binary numbers at the DO
– D7 inputs of the DAC0808 and the reference current (Iref), and is as follows:

PIC18F458 ADC with Features.


• ADC is analog to digital converter.

• It converts voltage into corresponding digital value.

• ADC used in data acquisition system.

• PIC 18 microcontroller has On-chp ADC.

Features of ADC
 The PIC18f458 has a 10-bit 8 channel A/D converter.

 The number of analog inputs varies among difference PIC18 devices.  The
A/D converter has the following registers:
•A/D Result High Register (ADRESH)
•A/D Result Low Register (ADRESL)
•A/D Control Register 0 (ADCON0)
•A/D Control Register 1 (ADCON1)

 ADRESH and ADRESL registers hold the result of the A/D conversion and
gives 16 bit output.

 ADCON0 is Control Register used for setting conversion time as well as used
to select the input channels.

 ADCON1 is Control Register used for setting Vref voltage.
