Here is one way to add 2 LS bits (or more) to any Dac no matter how it is made.
This assumes that the Dac that you are adding these bits to is 0 to 5 volts Fullscale
and accurate enough to justify adding LS bits.
To add 2 LS bits to a 14 bit Dac.
An easy ways to do it is NOT to use PWM.
That way it needs no filtering and no PWM
and few software resources, maybe none.
The added 15th Bit wants to add 1 / 32,768 of 5 volts
The added bit #16 wants to add 1 / 65,536 of 5 volts
As a universal solution, Add a small resistor at the output of the 14 bit Dac
of Value R (say 10 to 100 ohms).
