DAC TC1320

[Prashant Patel]

Hi...

We are using 16F877 with CCS PCM 3.202 Compiler and
TC1320 Digital To Analog converter.

Can anybody tell, How to send Analog value to the output
port?

We have connected SDA and SCL line to PIN_B5 and PIN_B4.
But don't know how to send the input data from analog
input port to DAC to convert it to Analog at last.

We don't know anything about this..please help...

Thanks in advanced...

Thanks..

I have that Datasheet for TC1320. But I am new for this.
Can you please write a simple code for me and explain a bit?

Start out by slowly incrementing a byte and sending it out to the D/A chip. That should give you a simple sawtooth output and let you know you can control the D/A. Then learn to use the A/D, and finally put the pieces together.

Of course first I recommend mastering "Hello World" and blinking a LED, but I assume you have already done that.

Hi..

I have the little experience in programming PIC.
If the data could be sent parallelly then would be
easy. But it is serial connection. So I need your
guidence about How to send the data according to
Protocol mentioned it the datasheet.
i.e
Start, Send Address, Ack, Data Byte and then Stop.

I have connected PIN B5 to SCL and PIN B4 to SDA.

Can write sample code for me..? Because it seems
little confusing to me.
Is there any example related to serial DAC in the
CCS examples?

Please guide with code.

Take a look at the I2C examples. Should be very similar to writing to an eeprom.
