In both cases, you're using two lower resolution DACs to avoid the need for one high resolution DAC. Of course, it's always possible to do whatever we like if we've got 16-bit DACs for everything, but the fun part is doing the same job with a cheap 8-bit DAC and *still* getting it to work!</div><div class=""><br class="">
