Note:
  1. DAC reference voltages < 2.4V, is not practical and peripheral performance is not guaranteed.
  2. DAC functional device operation with external VREF<2.4V is guaranteed, but not characterized. DAC will function, but with degraded performance. DAC accuracy is limited by users application noise/accuracy on AVDD, AVSS and VREF accuracy/drift.
  3. Value taken over 7 harmonics.
  4. 12-bit mode.
  5. Over VOUT range defined by DAC_7 parameter.
  6. Assuming DAC is configured and that first conversion is done.
  7. Characterized with 15 kHz sine wave and low pass filter at 250 kHz.
