i did the coding for adc10 to read 5 analog inputs in msp430g2231 and i did the average for the 5inputs and i stored the averaged value in a memory location.. now i need to know is there any posiabilty in msp430g2231 to interface the ad7541a(digital to analog converter)?? or else what i have to do to convert the averaged digital value in to the analog value
 

yes, you can connect the MSP430 to AD7541 to used as a DAC.

Not very easily. The AD7541A is a 12-bit DAC with parallel interface, while the msp430g2231 depending on the package style has a total of 14 to 16-pins, two of them being Vcc and Vss.

Therefore the AD7541A is not the best choice for this particular MCU. A DAC with either an I2C or SPI interface would be a more appropriate and effective solution.

i agree with bigdogguru. it is suitable to used a DAC with I2C or SPI connection. you can used a MCP4728-E/UN, it is a 12-bit DAC with I2C
