RM0444 Digital-to-analog converter (DAC)

16.4.2 DAC pins and internal signals
The DAC includes:
• Up to two output channels
• The DAC_OUTx can be disconnected from the output pin and used as an ordinary
GPIO
• The dac_outx can use an internal pin connection to on-chip peripherals such as
comparator, operational amplifier and ADC (if available).
• DAC output channel buffered or non buffered
• Sample and hold block and registers operational in Stop mode, using the LSI clock
source (dac_hold_ck) for static conversion.
The DAC includes up to two separate output channels. Each output channel can be
connected to on-chip peripherals such as comparator, operational amplifier and ADC (if
available). In this case, the DAC output channel can be disconnected from the DAC_OUTx
output pin and the corresponding GPIO can be used for another purpose.
The DAC output can be buffered or not. The Sample and hold block and its associated
registers can run in Stop mode using the LSI clock source (dac_hold_ck).
