Introduction

CircuitPython driver for the AD5691/2/3 I2C DAC

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle or individual libraries can be installed using circup.

Purchase one from the Adafruit shop

Installing from PyPI

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ad569x

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ad569x

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ad569x

Installing to a Connected CircuitPython Device with Circup

Make sure that you have circup installed in your Python environment. Install it with the following command if necessary:

pip3 install circup

With circup installed and your CircuitPython device connected use the following command to install:

circup install adafruit--circuitpython-ad569x

Or the following command to update an existing version:

circup update

Usage Example

    import board
    import adafruit_ad569x

    i2c = board.I2C()
    dac = adafruit_ad569x.Adafruit_AD569x(i2c)

# length of the sine wave
    LENGTH = 100
    # sine wave values written to the DAC
    value = [int(math.sin(math.pi * 2 * i / LENGTH) * ((2**15) - 1) + 2**15) for i in range(LENGTH)]

    while True:
            for v in value:
                    dac.value = v
