i have a DAC circuit and arduino uno..
i want to test the DAC circuit, but the output is 0V.
i am using port 2-9 on PWM arduino uno , and set pinMode to HIGH.
here the circuit of DAC, as the picture i attach.
VCC = 5V
VEE = -15V
Vref = i have 12V and 15V..
but the output of DAC is still 0V,, can you help me ?
Do you have a common ground between the Arduino and the DAC?
These pins are set to OUTPUT?
Where is the sketch?

- i just connect 8bit from arduino to DAC, i dont connect the ground, how can i connect that ?
- i already set pins to OUTPUT.
- i am build the same as the picture i attach on post #1..

i want to connect 8bit from arduino to DAC0808 circuit, but the output is 0V..
here the arduino code
void setup() {
// put your setup code here, to run once:
Serial.begin(38400);
Serial.println("Starting up");
pinMode(0,OUTPUT);
pinMode(1,OUTPUT);
pinMode(2,OUTPUT);
pinMode(3,OUTPUT);
pinMode(4,OUTPUT);
pinMode(5,OUTPUT);
pinMode(6,OUTPUT);
pinMode(7,OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
digitalWrite(2,LOW);
digitalWrite(3,HIGH);
digitalWrite(4,LOW);
digitalWrite(5,LOW);
digitalWrite(6,LOW);
digitalWrite(7,LOW);
digitalWrite(8,LOW);
digitalWrite(9,LOW);
}
Add a wire from the Arduino GND (0volt) pin, to pin 2 of the DAC.

then ? what should i do ?
You should try it again once you have connected the wire.
