Hi everyone.
I have read the PWM controller chapter in ATSAM3X8E MCU datasheet. After reading the PWM comparison unit of the chapter. I thought of sensing an analog signal through ADC and output the value through DAC of MCU for every 20 microsecond.
Is it possible ?
If it is, How to configure the COMPARISON unit in PWM controller for such an event based execution.
Thanks in advance.
ADC and DAC conversions can be triggered by a PWM pulse generated with a Timer Counter, or triggered by a PWM Event Line 0 or 1.
You will find both example sketches in these threads:

A 20 us period equals a 50 KHz frequency so it should be doable, but use a DMA so that interrupts frequency will be dramatically reduced.

Thanks for the help.
I will try.
I am trying to initialize the DACC module. But the DACC chapter in datasheet is not clear. The difference between the free running mode and triggered mode is not mentioned.
In DACC mode register, three bits are allocated for Trigger selection. For a combination of 001, TIO Output of the Timer Counter Channel 0 is the selected trigger.
I have seen the Timer Counter channel-0 block diagram for waveform mode. There the TIOA and TIOB are Output lines. I don't know which line triggers the DAC core. Should I initialize the Timer counter for the triggering of DACC ?
How to set the DACC in TAG mode.

Thanks for the help.
I made my own code file. I want to use the DACC in tag mode for the present code example. What are the modification should I make.
