Constructor Detail

DAC

public DAC(int numChannels,
           int resolutionBits,
           float refMinVolts,
           float refMaxVolts,
           float vdd)

Constructs a new DAC object which represents the DAC.

Parameters:

numChannels - number of output channels.

resolutionBits - resolution of each channel in bits.

refMinVolts - vref miniumum in volts (same for all channels).

refMaxVolts - vref max in volts (same for all channels).

vdd - the positive supply voltage (the largest voltage the DAC could output). A DAC may use an internal or external reference voltage such that some counts would output a voltage larger than vdd. VPot uses this vdd to limit its displayed voltage.
