Single-Ended Output, Ratiometric Gain

When using a device with a single-ended output, the J3 connector provides access to the VOUT and VREF output pins of the device.

When R5 is populated and R4 is depopulated, VREF is accessible from J3.1 and needs to be connected to a reference voltage to set the gain of the output. The passive components of R1 and C8 are populated as a low-pass filter for VOUT to attenuate high frequency noise components. C10 is populated to stabilize the VREF voltage. VDD2 and GND2 are accessible through the J2 connector. C5 and C6 serve as decoupling capacitors for VDD2 and help keep the supply stable.

Using an oscilloscope, the user can observe the output signal on J3.2 (VOUT) with respect to J2.1 (GND2).
