Re: 4X DAC Design using Atmega16 and AD7528 IC

2007-12-09 by huiyangdoh

Yeah I know. In fact MCP4725 is my first choice but since I couldn't 
get it from the shop here, I would go with AD7528. So, any 
suggestion to design the 4X DAC using AD7528 for Atmega16? I crack 
my mind to search for this topic using Google but to no avail.
