RE: [AVR-Chat] AVR with DAC?

2004-10-26 by Lasse Madsen

Hi
 
No AVR has DAC but what resolution do you need and at what speed (it can
be done using the ADC and a PWM channel)
 
Regards
Lasse

I am using an non AVR application that uses 2 dacs that go 0-5v. Does
any AVR have dacs?

This is a common problem if you consult the datasheet you will see it
specified with a large variation making it "unusable" for anything that
requires precision I'm using the VCC through a RCL network and this is
more accurate.

Not that I recall but, if you have an unused timer, you can put it into
PWM mode and connect its output to the AREF pin via a suitable R-C
filter.
