clamp DAC output voltage range and limits
When using the internal clamp DAC, the user must ensure that the desired dc clamp level at AIN+/â lies within
the voltage range VREFB to VREFT. This is because the clamp DAC voltage is constrained to lie within this range
VREFB to VREFT. Specifically:
VDAC + VREFB ) (VREFT * VREFB) (0.006 ) 0.988 (DAC code)Å1024)
(13)
DAC codes can range from 0 to 1023. Figure 40 graphically shows the clamp DAC output voltage versus the
DAC code.

Figure 40. Clamp DAC Output Voltage Versus DAC Register Code Value
If the desired dc level at AIN+/â does not lie within the voltage range VREFT to VREFB, then either the CLAMPIN
pin can be used instead to provide a suitable reference voltage, or it may be possible to redesign the application
to move the AIN+/â input range into the CLAMP DAC voltage range.
