Bit Name

Description

LDAC

Setting this bit to 1 updates the DAC register and consequently the DAC output.

CLR

Setting this bit to 1 sets the DAC register to a user defined value (see Table 12) and updates the DAC output. The output

value depends on the DAC register coding that is being used, either binary or twos complement.

Reset

Setting this bit to 1 returns the AD5780 to its power-on state.
