Overview
1 Overview
The DAC63204EVM is an easy-to-use platform to evaluate the functionality and performance of the DAC63204,
DAC53204, and DAC43204 commercial devices.
The 12-bit DAC63204, 10-bit DAC53204, and 8-bit DAC43204 (DACx3204) are a pin-compatible family of
quad-channel, buffered, voltage-output and current-output smart digital-to-analog converters (DACs). The DAC
outputs are capable of both voltage and current output. The DACx3204 support Hi-Z power-down mode and Hi-Z
output during power-off conditions. The DAC outputs provide a force-sense option for use as a programmable
comparator and current sink. The multifunction GPIO, function generation, and nonvolatile memory (NVM)
enable these smart DACs for use in applications and design reuse without the need for a processor (processor
less operation). These devices also automatically detect I2C, SPI, and PMBus interfaces, and contain an internal
reference.

2 System Setup
2.1 Software Setup
This section provides the procedure for EVM software installation.
2.1.1 Operating Systems
The EVM software is compatible with the Windows™ 10 operating system.
2.1.2 Software Installation
Before software installation, make sure that the DAC63204EVM is not connected to the computer.
The software can be downloaded from the device product folders. After the software is downloaded, navigate to
the download folder, and run the DAC63204EVM software installer executable.
When the DAC63204EVM software is launched, an installation dialog window opens and prompts the user to
select an installation directory. If left unchanged, the software location defaults to C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas
Instruments\DAC63204EVM as shown in Figure 2-1.

System Setup
The software installation also installs the FTDI USB drivers, and automatically copies the required LabVIEW™
software files and drivers to the local machine. The FTDI USB drivers install in a second executable, shown in
Figure 2-2, that is automatically launched after the DAC63204EVM software installation is complete.

2.2 Hardware Setup
This section describes the overall system setup for the EVM. A computer runs the software that provides an
interface to the DAC63204EVM through the onboard controller.
The USB connection generates 5 V of power for use as the DAC supply voltage (VDD). The onboard controller
generates 3.3 V of power for the input/output (IO) signals generated by the controller. These IO signals are level
translated to the VDD voltage of the DAC. Figure 2-3 displays the system hardware setup.

2.2.1 Electrostatic Discharge Caution
CAUTION
Many of the components on the DAC63204EVM are susceptible to damage by electrostatic
discharge (ESD). Observe proper ESD handling precautions when unpacking and handling the
EVM, including the use of a grounded wrist strap at an approved ESD workstation.
2.2.2 Power Configurations and Jumper Settings
The DAC63204EVM provides electrical connections to the device supply pins. The connections are shown in
Table 2-1.

If an external supply is applied to the DAC VDD pin, remove jumper J3 to disconnect the 5-V USB supply from
the DAC VDD pin.
GPIO2 from the onboard controller is connected to the DAC GPIO pin of the DACx3204. This input can be
controlled through the graphical user interface (GUI) using the controls for GPIO2. If DAC GPIO is configured as
an output, remove J6 to disable the GPIOs from the onboard controller.
GPIO3 from the onboard controller is broken out to J1, pin 8 and is controlled through the GUI using the controls
for GPIO3.
To enable the GPIO pins, close jumper J6. To disable the GPIO pins, remove jumper J6.
2.2.3 Connecting the Hardware
After the power and jumper configurations are set up as per Section 2.2.2, connect the USB cable from the
DAC63204EVM USB port to the computer.

3.1 Hardware Description
The following sections provide detailed information on the EVM hardware and jumper configuration settings.
3.1.1 Theory of Operation
Figure 3-1 shows a simplified schematic of the DAC63204EVM board. There are two 16-pin connectors that
provide access to all of the DAC pins. The GPIO, I2C, and SPI signals from the onboard controller are connected
to the DAC through three level translators. Each level translator can be independently disabled to disconnect the
onboard controller GPIO, I2C, and SPI signals from the DAC signals while the DAC is running in stand-alone
mode.

using I2C communication. These functions are built into several GUI pages, as shown in the following
subsections. The menu bar on the far left of the GUI allows the user to switch between pages. The menu
bar displays the High Level Configuration page with Basic DAC, Margining, and Function Generation subpages,
and the Low Level Configuration page.
Before using the GUI, see the respective device data sheet for detailed DACx3204 programming instructions.
3.2.2.1 High Level Configuration Page
The High Level Configuration page, shown in Figure 3-4, provides an interface to quickly configure the
parameters and relevant register settings for the respective DACx3204 device. The High Level Configuration
page consists of the Basic DAC, Margining, and Function Generation subpages.

3.2.2.1.1 Basic DAC Subpage
The Basic DAC subpage shown in Figure 3-5 provides an interface to quickly power up, select the reference
and output span, and program the output voltage or current for the respective DACx3204 device. When VDD
is applied, the DACx3204 device starts up in Hi-Z power-down mode by default. The Basic DAC subpage also
provides controls to configure the GPIO pin on the respective DACx3204 device, and control the two GPIO
outputs of the DAC63204EVM onboard controller. The register settings can be programmed or retrieved using
the Program NVM or Reload NVM checkboxes, respectively.

The Margining subpage is shown in Figure 3-6. This subpage provides the settings for the margin-low, marginhigh, and nominal DAC outputs. Self-resetting triggers are used to trigger the margin-high and margin-low
voltage levels for each DAC channel. The Code Step and Slew Rate drop-down menu settings are also provided
on this page to control the slew of each margin high or low trigger (Trigger MHx). The register settings can be
programmed or retrieved using the Program NVM or Reload NVM checkboxes, respectively.

3.2.2.2 Low Level Configuration Page
The Low Level Configuration page, shown in Figure 3-8, allows access to low-level communication directly with
the respective DACx3204 device registers. Select a register on the Register Map list to show a description of the
values in that register, as well as information on the register address, default value, size, and current value. Data
are written to the registers by entering a value in the value column of the GUI.
