466 - PAC-Designer: How to connect the POWR6AT6 Trim-DAC control to an analog-digital converter (ADC)?
Solution:
The control logic for each POWR6AT6 Trim-DAC output is automatically connected to the analog-digital converter (ADC) and the respective Voltage Monitor (VMON) input. This is done such that the voltage applied to VMON1 is converted by the ADC and used to adjust Trim-DAC1 when it is in Closed Loop Trim mode. The delay between adjustments is set by double clicking on the Control Logic block in PAC-Designer and changing the DAC Update Delay in the Global Trimming Settings Dialog box.
