Hardware Overview
How does it work?
AD-SWIO Click is based on AD74412R, a 16-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), and a 13-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) from Analog Devices. There are several modes related to the AD74412R. These modes are voltage output, current output, voltage input, externally powered current input, loop-powered current input, external RTD measurement, digital input logic, and loop-powered digital input. The ADC can measure the voltage across the 100Ω RSENSE or at each channel's I/OP_x screw terminal. In high impedance mode, the ADC, by default, measures the voltage across the screw terminals (I/OP_x to I/ON_x) in a 0V to 10V range. The ADC also provides diagnostic information on user-selectable inputs such as supplies, internal die temperature, reference, and regulators. The AD-SWIO Click has four GPO-x pins, one per channel (GPO-A, GPO-B, GPO-C, GPO-D).
Each channel GPO-x pin can be configured to the logic outputs of the digital input functions or a logic high or low output. The GPO-x pins can be set via the GPO_SELECT bits within the GPO_CONFIGx registers. The Click board™ also contains an LVIN ( Low Voltage Input) pin, the measurement voltage range on this pin is 0V to 2.5V. The AD74412R has four 13-bit DACs, one per channel. Each DAC core is a 13-bit string DAC. The architecture structure consists of a string of resistors, each with a value of R. The digital input code loaded to the DAC_CODEx registers determines which string node the voltage is tapped off from and fed into the output amplifier. This architecture is inherently monotonic and linear. The AD74412R has short-circuited limit in voltage output mode that is programmable per channel. The circuit minimizes glitching on the I/OP_x screw terminal when the AVDD
supply is ramping, or the use case configuration is changed. This short-circuit limit you can regulate with a positive analog supply on the AVDD pin, Output voltage on AD-SWIO 2 Click is limited to +20V. The AD-SWIO 2 Click is equipped with the ADP1613 step-up dc-to-dc switching converter from Analog Devices with an integrated power switch capable of providing an output voltage as high as 20V. This Click board™ can only be operated with a 3.3V logic voltage level. The board must perform appropriate logic voltage level conversion before using MCUs with different logic levels. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing functions and an example code that can be used as a reference for further development.
Features overview
Development board
Nucleo 32 with STM32F031K6 MCU board provides an affordable and flexible platform for experimenting with STM32 microcontrollers in 32-pin packages. Featuring Arduino™ Nano connectivity, it allows easy expansion with specialized shields, while being mbed-enabled for seamless integration with online resources. The
board includes an on-board ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger/programmer, supporting USB reenumeration with three interfaces: Virtual Com port, mass storage, and debug port. It offers a flexible power supply through either USB VBUS or an external source. Additionally, it includes three LEDs (LD1 for USB communication, LD2 for power,
and LD3 as a user LED) and a reset push button. The STM32 Nucleo-32 board is supported by various Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) such as IAR™, Keil®, and GCC-based IDEs like AC6 SW4STM32, making it a versatile tool for developers.

Application Output
1. Application Output - In Debug mode, the 'Application Output' window enables real-time data monitoring, offering direct insight into execution results. Ensure proper data display by configuring the environment correctly using the provided tutorial.

2. UART Terminal - Use the UART Terminal to monitor data transmission via a USB to UART converter, allowing direct communication between the Click board™ and your development system. Configure the baud rate and other serial settings according to your project's requirements to ensure proper functionality. For step-by-step setup instructions, refer to the provided tutorial.

3. Plot Output - The Plot feature offers a powerful way to visualize real-time sensor data, enabling trend analysis, debugging, and comparison of multiple data points. To set it up correctly, follow the provided tutorial, which includes a step-by-step example of using the Plot feature to display Click board™ readings. To use the Plot feature in your code, use the function: plot(*insert_graph_name*, variable_name);. This is a general format, and it is up to the user to replace 'insert_graph_name' with the actual graph name and 'variable_name' with the parameter to be displayed.

* \file
* \brief AdSwio Click example
*
* # Description
* This Click provides a fully integrated single chip solution for input and output operation.
* The AD-SWIO Click contains four 13-bit DACs, one per chanal, and 16-bit Σ-∆ ADC.
* These options give a lot of flexibility in choosing functionality for analog output,
* analog input, digital input, resistance temperature detector (RTD), and thermocouple
* measurements integrated into a single chip solution with a serial peripheral interface (SPI).
*
* The demo application is composed of two sections :
*
* ## Application Init
* Performs a hardware reset of the Click board and
* executes a default configuration that enables channel A and sets it to measure voltage
* input in the range from 0V to 10V, with 4800 SPS.
*
* ## Application Task
* Waits for the data ready and then reads the results of ADC conversion from channel A
* and if response is ok, then prints the results on the uart console.
*
* ## Additional Functions
*
* - void application_default_handler ( uint8_t *err_msg ) - Sends an error report messages from Click
* driver to initialized console module. It must be set using adswio2_set_handler function.
