Output Data Word Format for EM 232 and EM 235
Figure A-23 shows where the 12-bit data value is placed within the analog output
word of the CPU.
Figure A-23 Output Data Word Format for EM 232 and EM 235
Note
The 12 bits of the digital-to-analog converter (DAC) readings are left-justified in
the output data word format. The MSB is the sign bit: zero indicates a positive
data word value. The four trailing zeros are truncated before being loaded into
the DAC registers. These bits have no effect on the output signal value.
