Integrated 12-bit ADC and DAC — analog front-end savings
The on-chip 8-channel 12-bit ADC and dual 12-bit DAC cover many sensor-conditioning and closed-loop control tasks without external converters. The ADC handles multiplexed analog inputs (temperature, pressure, current sense), while the DACs can generate setpoints or analog output signals. This integration shrinks BOM count and board area compared to a separate ADC + DAC + MCU solution.
