The reason for this goes back to Ohm's Law: V = I x R (voltage equals current multiplied
by resistance). Each BASIC Stamp I/O pin can supply up to 20 mA of current. In the case
of the resistive ladder network without the buffer, the BASIC Stamp I/O pins reached
their maximum current output. Meanwhile, the resistance seen by the I/O pins stayed
about the same. In other words, I x R reached a limit because I (the current) could no
longer increase, and R is a fixed value. So the output voltage is equal to a current value
that can't get any higher multiplied by a fixed resistance. This is why the voltage stops
increasing.
Aside from isolating two circuits from each other, an op-amp in voltage follower
configuration can typically supply more current than the circuit connected to its input.
The name buffer is commonly used when a voltage follower is used to supply extra
current.
The circuit from Figure 4-8 will also be used at the beginning of Chapter #5, so do not
disassemble the circuit after completing Chapter #4.
