Digital To Analog Converter

Overview

ESP32 has two 8-bit DAC (digital to analog converter) channels, connected to GPIO25 (Channel 1) and GPIO26 (Channel 2).

The DAC driver allows these channels to be set to arbitrary voltages.

The DAC channels can also be driven with DMA-style written sample data, via the I2S driver when using the “built-in DAC mode”.

For other analog output options, see the Sigma-delta Modulation module and the LED Control module. Both these modules produce high frequency PWM output, which can be hardware low-pass filtered in order to generate a lower frequency analog output.


Setting DAC channel 1 (GPIO25) voltage to approx 0.78 of VDD_A voltage (VDD * 200 / 255). For VDD_A 3.3V, this is 2.59V:

Pulse Counter,ESP32,PCNT

  Pulse Counter The PCNT (Pulse Counter) module is designed to count the number of rising and/or falling edges of an input signal. Each pulse counter unit has a 16-bit signed counter register and two channels that can be configured to either increment or decrement the counter. Each channel has a signal input that accepts signal edges to be detected, as well as a control input that can be used to enable or disable the signal input. The inputs have optional filters that can be used to discard unwanted glitches in the signal.

XTR117 4-20mA Current Loop Transmitter

 The XTR117 is a precision current output converter designed to transmit analog 4-20mA signals over an industry-standard current loop. Figure 1 shows basic circuit connections with representative simplified input circuitry. The XTR117 is a two-wire current transmitter. Its input current (pin 2) controls the output current. A portion of the output current flows into the V+ power supply, pin 7. The remaining current flows in Q1. External input circuitry connected to the XTR117 can be powered from VREG. Current drawn from these terminals must be returned to IRET, pin 3. The IRET pin is a local ground for input circuitry driving the XTR117. The XTR117 is a current-input device with a gain of 100. A current flowing into pin 2 produces IO = 100 x IIN. The input voltage at the IIN pin is zero (referred to the IRET pin). A voltage input is converted to an input current with an external input resistor, RIN, as shown in Figure 1. Typical full-scale input voltages range from 1V and upward. Fu...
