Digital to
Analog
Conversion
Digital data
representing an analog
signal (for instance an
MP3 file) sampled at a
(usually) fixed time
interval is fed to a
Digital to Analog
Converter
The output is an analog
waveform which is an
approximation to the
original analog signal

Operation II
The basic operational
idea of the DAC we will
be using is simply to
have a series of switches
which control a resistor
network
Depending on which
bits are set, the output
voltage changes

The TLC7524
DAC
For your analog signal
generator you will be
using an 8-bit DAC to
convert an 8-bit data
stream , from the
ATmega128 ports, to
analog signals of given
frequency, amplitude
and offset

Write Cycles of
the TLC7524
The DAC has internal
registers to store the
input Data (1 Byte) and
signals which control
the write operation
(CS*, WR*):

DAC
Operation
The output signal will
need to be fed into an
external op-amp
Data should be put on
the data bus using one
of the ATMEL PORTs
CS* can be held low

From ATMEL PORT
You can write numbers
to the DAC in a similar
way as with the 3-byte
memory module using
the ATmega128 Ports

Task Plan
11
• Design and construct a Signal Generator:
• The signals should be produced using a DAC
and an Operational Amplifier driven by one of
the ATmega128 ports.
• Verify operation by copying the input voltage
read from the potentiometer to the DAC output
