6.6
In some applications, precision digital control of the
output range is desirable. Example 6-4 illustrates how
to use the MCP4922 to achieve this in a bipolar or
single-supply application.

This circuit is typically used in Multiplier mode and is
ideal for linearizing a sensor whose slope and offset
varies. Refer to Section 6.9 “Using Multiplier Mode”
for more information on Multiplier mode.
