MCP4902/4912/4922
6.9
The MCP4902/4912/4922 family of devices use exter-
nal reference, and these devices are ideally suited for
use as a multiplier/divider in a signal chain. The
common applications are: (a) Precision programmable
gain/attenuator amplifiers and (b) Motor control
feedback loop. The wide input range (0V – V
Unbuffered mode and near rail-to-rail range in Buffered
mode: its bandwidth (> 400 kHz), selectable 1x/2x gain
and low power consumption give maximum flexibility to
meet the application’s needs.
To configure the MCP4902/4912/4922 family of
devices for multiple applications, connect the input sig-
nal to V
fer, gain and output value. The DAC’s output can utilize
any of Examples 6-1 to 6-6, depending on the applica-
tion requirements.
the DAC can operate in a motor control feedback loop.

If the gain selection bit is configured for 1x mode
(<GA> = 1), the resulting input signal will be attenuated
by D/2
if the gain is configured for 2x mode (<GA> = 0), the
codes less than 2048 attenuate the signal, while the
codes greater than 2048 gain the signal.
A DAC provides significantly more gain/attenuation
resolution when compared to typical Programmable
Gain Amplifiers. Adding an op amp to buffer the output,
as illustrated in Examples 6-2 to 6-6, extends the
output range and power to meet the precise needs of
the application.
