=Digital to Analog Converter (DAC)=

==Compatibility [http://www.micromint.com/index.php/SBC/lincoln60.html Lincoln 60], [http://www.micromint.com/index.php/SBC/lincoln60.html Lincoln 60E]==

The NXP LPC1769 microcontroller used in the Lincoln controller line supports one channel of 10-bit DAC that has an update rate of 1 MHz. The DAC signal is available on pin 7 on the following header:

This example shows how to use the DAC to generate triangle and square waves. The signal output is shown below. In integer format the 10-bit outputs go between 0 and 1023 (0x03FF) for the range 0.00V to 3.30V in steps of 3.22 mV. Op-amps or other alternatives should be used to implement scaling and isolation.
