Device Information

The Texas Instruments new smart DAC and AFE family is a precision DAC family designed to add simple logic to analog design without the need for run-time software. These devices have built in non-volatile memory (NVM) to store configurations, custom pulse-width modulation (PWM) generation, general purpose input/output (GPIO) control, force-sense output, and Hi-Z output even when VDD is disconnected for low-dropout regulators (LDO) or switched mode power supply (SMPS) voltage margining.

Some devices in the Smart AFE family add on programmable state-machine logic, look up tables, ADCs and DACs channels. As an example, the AFE539A4 has integrated proportional-integral (PI) controler for thermoelectrical cooling (TEC) control.

The table below shows the list of all supported devices by DIY-EVM.
