    you need a DAC for that
    you have to give digital input and you get corresponding analog output
    for example using 8 bit DAC to generate square wave
    first give digital input 00h (all 0’s)
    then after delay give input FFh (all 1’s)
    again after delay give all 0 input like wise

    Hi,

     

    Signal generation requires two parameters to be controlled.

    1. Amplitude 

    2. Frequency

     

     

    To control the amplitude, you have to use DAC which will give Analog voltage on output pin.

     

    To control frequency, you can use keys, keypad etc. for entering the frequency value. Another option is use ADC for this.

    The output of ADC controlles the sampling rate and hence you can obtain variable frequency output.

     

    All the best.
