1.4 Device Information

The AFE539A4 is a 10-bit, 4-channel DAC device where one of the channels can be configured as a 10-bit ADC input for analog sensing. The device contains an integrated state machine that is configured as a PI controller. The user has access to all PI parameters including set point which are then stored in the NVM. The NVM updates all of the device registers on device power-up which removes the need for any run-time software. In addition, the device has current sensing capability to clamp the output in case of a fault.
