4.17 ADC and DAC

The AM263x LaunchPad maps 18 ADC inputs to the BoosterPack header. All of the ADC inputs that are used in the LaunchPad are ESD protected.

Seven of the ADC inputs and one instance of the DAC_OUT signal is routed to a 2:1 mux (TS3DDR3812RUAR) to offer alternate BoosterPack functionality. The select line of the mux is driven by an AM263x SoC GPIO signal.

GPIO63 Condition Funciton of Mux
LOW ADC input/DAC_OUT Selected Port A ↔ Port B
HIGH Alternate BP functionality Selected Port A ↔ Port C

The ADC and DAC require a voltage reference. The AM263x LaunchPad has two switches that allow the user to switch between the DAC and ADC VREF source.

The DAC VREF Switch (S1) is a single pole double throw switch that controls the input of the ADC VREF inputs of the AM263x SoC.

The ADC VREF Switch (S2) contains two single pole double throw switch that controls the input of the ADC VREF inputs of the AM263x SoC.
