使用DMA的STM32F3 DAC信号生成

Question

I'm writing a program that is supposed to generate sine wave using DAC on my STM32f3Discovery board. I have it in several files, listed below.

Utilities.h:

#ifndef UTILITIES_H
#define UTILITIES_H

/** @brief Configure GPIOE, pin 9 (LED) as output PP
 */
void GPIOE_init( void );

/** @brief Configure Timer 2, event frequency - 100Hz
 */
void Timer_init( void );

/** @brief Configure interrupt handler
 */
void NVIC_config( void );

/** @brief Configure and enable DAC channel 1 on pin PA4,
 *  with TIM2 TRGO as trigger
 */
void DACch1_config( void );

/** @brief Configure DMA to work with DAC
 */
void DMA_config( void );

#endif //UTILITIES_H

int main(void)
{
    DMA_config();

    DACch1_config();

    Timer_init();

    while(1){

    }
}

So in theory it should generate sine wave on pin A.04. However when I look at the voltage on this pin using osciloscope, it shows nothing (ground potential).

Does anyone has any idea what could be wrong?

Answer 1

Alright, I fixed it. If anyone else is interested, it seems like the only suitable DMA channel that can drive DAC_1 is DMA2 channel 3. It can be somehow remapped to DMA1 channel 3, im still strugling with it.

EDIT:

Got everything working. If it is of any help to someone, here are all necessary steps in order to get DAC woring on STM32f3:

1. Enable clock for timerX (gotta see what timers are available to trigger DAC with TRGO event), DMA, DAC and GPIOA. If you wanna use non-default DMA for DAC, enable clock for SYSCFG.

2. Set up desired DAC channel. Note that on STM32f3 Discovery there is only 1 DAC with 2 channels. DACch1 out is PA4, DACch2 out is PA5.

3. Configure selected GPIOA as analog input and init.

4. Configure DAC and init. Remember to enable DMA for DAC.

5. If you wanna change default settings for DMA to use with DAC use SYSCFG_DMAChannelRemapConfig command.

6. Configure DMA and init.

7. Configure desired timer and init. Remember to set up TRGO interrupt!

Below I'm including working code for sine wave generation on DACch1 using non-default DMA.

Answer 2

I encountered a similar problem. firstly check if your MCU has a DAC block. There might be no DAC peripheral in which case no sine wave will be generated. you can check this in the data sheet for your specific microcontroller package.
