8.1.1 Bipolar Operation Using the DAC9881

The DAC9881 is designed for single-supply operation; however, a bipolar output is also possible using the circuit shown in Figure 70. This circuit gives a bipolar output voltage of VOUT. When GAIN = 1, VOUT can be calculated using Equation 2:

Some pins are omitted for clarity.

Equation 2. DAC9881 EQ1_VOUT_CODE.gif

where

  • VOUT(CODE) = output voltage vs code
  • CODE = 0 to 262143. This is the digital code loaded to the DAC
  • VREF = reference voltage applied to the DAC9881

As an example, a ±8-V output span can be achieved by using values of 5 V, 6.25 kΩ, 16.67 kΩ, and 10 kΩ for Vref, R1, R2, and R3 respectively.
