update. If DACMB3 is set, the circuitry
will determine whether to perform one
read or two reads from the DAC FIFO
depending on the data in the FIFO. See
Table 4-6 for available modes and bit
patterns.
7 DACGATE DAC Update Gate—This bit controls the
update circuitry for the DACs in the
delayed update mode. If DACGATE is
set, updating of the DACs is inhibited.
