Figure9showsaDACchannelcontrollingtheoutput

voltage of an LM317 voltage regulator. By program-

ming the code, the DAC changes its own supply

voltage. This circuit can be modified for wider output

voltage ranges by reducing the value of R

4. However,

the circuit as shown requires the DAC to sink 1mA to

the negative rail at code 0 at its lowest V

DD, at which

pointtheoutputvoltageis62mV.Thus,programming

codes 0 through 5 will do little to influence the output.

If R

4 is replaced with a short circuit, useful operation

would be between 3.9V and 6.15V output; however,

the DAC output must then sink 2.5mA at V

DD = 3.9V,

which results in a minimum DAC output voltage of

equally spaced output voltage increments.

Figure 10 shows how the gain of an external non–

inverting op amp can be programmed. R

F and RG are

chosen for nominal gain. R

TRIMRANGE is then ratioed to

F to provide the desired range of gain trim. A wide

gain grange is achievable — for example, with R

F =

11kOhms,R

G=1kOhmsandRTRIMRANGE=2.74kOhms,

gain would be programmed linearly from 8 to just

under 16.
