Resistor String
The resistor string section is shown in Figure 89. It is simply a string of resistors, each of value R. The code
loaded into the DAC register determines at which node on the string the voltage is tapped off to be fed into the
output amplifier by closing one of the switches connecting the string to the amplifier. The resistor string
architecture guarantees monotonicity. The R
DIVIDER
switch is controlled by the gain registers (see the GAIN
REGISTERS section). Because the output amplifier has a gain of two, R
DIVIDER
is not shorted when the DAC-n
gain is set to one (default if internal reference is disabled), and is shorted when the DAC-n gain is set to two
(default if internal reference is enabled).

Output Amplifier
The output buffer amplifier is capable of generating rail-to-rail voltages on its output, giving a maximum output
range of 0 V to AV
DD
. It is capable of driving a load of 2 kΩ in parallel with 3 nF to GND. The typical slew rate is
0.75 V/µs, with a typical full-scale settling time of 14 µs as shown in Figure 31, Figure 32, Figure 75 and
Figure 76.
