8.3.1.2
When calibrating a set point or threshold of a sensor,
typically only a small portion of the DAC output range is
utilized. If the LSb size is adequate enough to meet the
application’s accuracy needs, the unused range is
sacrificed without consequences. If greater accuracy is
needed, then the output range will need to be reduced
to increase the resolution around the desired threshold.
If the threshold is not near V
creating a “window” around the threshold has several
advantages. One simple method to create this
“window” is to use a voltage divider network with a
pull-up and pull-down resistor.

Bipolar operation is achievable by utilizing an external
operational amplifier. This configuration is desirable
due to the wide variety and availability of op amps. This
allows a general purpose DAC, with its cost and
availability advantages, to meet almost any desired
output voltage range, power and noise performance.
