In this project, we have designed a project which describes how to interface Arduino with ADC/DAC module.

PCF8591 ADC/DAC Module

PCF8591 is basically an 8 bit analog to digital or 8 bit digital to analog converter, which means each pin can read analog values up to 256. It needs 2.5-6V supply voltage and has a small standby current. If we need we can handle the input voltage by regulating the knob of the potentiometer on the module. We can see there are also three jumpers on the board.

There are two LEDs on board D1 and D2, out of which D1 indicates the output voltage intensity and D2 indicates the intensity of supply voltage. In this interfacing, we are going to read analog values from any of the analog pins and modify those values with the help of 100K pot.

    Run a Program
    #include #include
    #define PCF8591 (0x90 >> 1)
    #define AIN0 0x00
    const int rs = 12, en = 11, d4 = 5, d5 = 4, d6 = 3, d7 = 2;
    LiquidCrystal lcd(rs, en, d4, d5, d6, d7);
    int Value = 0;

    void setup()
    {
    Wire.begin();
    lcd.begin(16,2);
    }
    void loop()
    {
    Wire.beginTransmission(PCF8591);
    Wire.write(AIN0);
    Wire.endTransmission();
    Wire.requestFrom(PCF8591, 1);

    Value = Wire.read();
    lcd.print("ADC Value=");
    lcd.print(Value);
    delay(500);
    lcd.clear();
    }
