Software Supported Optimisation Of D/A Converters
Nowadays many microcontrollers have an internal D/A converter with a resolution of 8-12 bits. This is enough to meet most application requirements but sometimes a higher resolution is needed. A lower resolution may also be good enough if the D/A converter has ideal characteristics, but often non-linearity means the D/A converter can't be used.
