> What PIC microcontrollers do the opposite - convert a value (0-255 or > 0-1023) into a 0-5V voltage output? Jason, There are PICs with D/A modules (eg the 16-bit families) http://www.microchip.com/stellent/idcplg?IdcService=SS_GET_PAGE&nodeId=2629¶m=en533465 where you'll find links to application notes, for example ADCPM but a D/A can be made from any PIC with a little h/w. PWM into an integrater for example. This can be as simple as an RC filter > What examples of completed projects that use the D/A are there? Depends what resolution you're looking for. 8-bit ? 10 ? 12 ? 16 ? http://www.romanblack.com/picsound.htm http://www.embedinc.com/pic/hal.htm -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
