4.9 Auxiliary DACs, LCD Contrast Converter
Auxiliary DACs generate AFC, AGC and power control signals for the RF system. These three D/A
converters are updated when the corresponding data is received from the DSP. In fewer than 5 µs after the
corresponding registers are written to, the output has settled to within 1 LSB of its new value (see
Table 4–10).

Range settings depends only on AUXFS [1:0]. The supply voltage is not detected.
The LCDCONTR output is used by the microcontroller to adjust the contrast of the liquid-crystal display
(LCD). This converter is a separate 4-bit DAC.
The auxiliary DACs can be powered down. The AGC and AFC DACs have dedicated bits in the MIntCtrl
register to enable the DACs. The PWRCONT DAC is enabled by the TXEN bit in the DStatCtrl register. The
LCDCONTR DAC is enabled when the LCDEN bit of the LCD D/A register clears to 0, the four data bits being
left justified. The AFC, AGC, and PWRCONT DACs are disabled after powerup or after a reset of the
TCM4300. After power up or reset, the default AUXFS[1:0] is 00. When the DACs are powered down, their
output terminals go to a high-impedance state and can tolerate any voltage present on the terminal that falls
within the supply range.
The slope and the corresponding output values for the auxiliary DACs are listed in Table 4–11 and
Table 4–12.
