Hi there,
I am using serial d/a converter (AD5432 from analog devices) for the first time and have some problems with it. I designed the circuit for unipolar output according to datasheet and i am controlling the control words with FPGA.
However, i am not getting any output (0V). I was thinking that the problem might be in setting the control words correctly. I know that it is time consuming for someone to go through the datasheet of this component so I am asking if anybody used this or any other (since they all work similarly) serial DAC before?
Also can i use constant voltage for Vref using power supply generator or that doesnt provide good stability, etc?
Any comments in this metter will be very much appreciated.
Thankx
