Schechter - ISR group account) Distribution: usa Organization: Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY Lines: 8 By using all three (RGB) DACs, carefully choosing the individual levels, and sending the outputs through a attenuator/mixing network, it is possible to acheive 12-bit accuracy in 16 stepped ranges. (ie, at the hi-order 4 bit bit transitions, there are mismatchs). -- Mike Schechter, Computer Engineer,Institute Sensory Research, Syracuse Univ.
