Indicator LED connected to DAC
Posted: Tue Sep 05, 2017 12:31 pm
Hey
So I'm writing a program where I use DACR to display a waveshape. Everything is working flawlessly but whenever DACR outputs a value close to 1 or -1 the clip LED lights up. Is this in any way harmful to the chip?
I'm guessing "no", but I always get the vibe that when a clipping indicator for a DSP lights up I'm doing something harmful to the hardware.
