CAT514
this value is the same as that which had been there
previously no change in the DAC’s output is noticed.
Had the value held in the control register been different
from that stored in EEPROM then a change would occur
at the read cycle’s conclusion.
TEMPORARILY CHANGE OUTPUT
The CAT514 allows temporary changes in DAC’s output
to be made without disturbing the settings retained in
EEPROM memory. This feature is particularly useful
when testing for a new output setting and allows for user
adjustment of preset or default values without losing the
original factory settings.
Figure 3 shows the control and data signals needed to
effect a temporary output change. DAC settings may be
changed as many times as required and can be made to
any of the four DACs in any order or sequence. The
temporary setting(s) remain in effect long as CS remains
high. When CS returns low all four DACs will return to the
output values stored in EEPROM memory.
When it is desired to save a new setting acquired using
this feature, the new value must be reloaded into the
DAC control register prior to programming. This is be-
cause the CAT514’s internal control circuitry discards
the new data from the programming register two clock
cycles after receiving it (after reception is complete) if no
PROG signal is received.
