#137742 - Spare ADC and DAC on your micro?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Oh... another Idea. Concept only.

Assume DAC can swing 0 to 5v but set for output 2.5v

Connect a 10k resistor between the DAC output and ADC input (the probe point is defined as the ADC input).

The ADC voltage (proble voltage) will indicate the logic state of the probe point.

If probe voltage >0v and <0.6v then Logic 0
If probe voltage >2.4v and <5.5 then logic 1
If probe voltage >0.6v and <2.4v then Hi-Z
If probe voltage <0 then ERROR
IF probe voltage >5.5v then ERROR
