where VREF can be an AC signal
 By connecting the DAC in the feedback loop of an opera-
tional amplifier a linear digitally control gain block can be
realized
 Note that with all digital inputs low the gain of the amplifier
is infinity that is the op amp will saturate In other words we
cannot divide the VREF by zero
