AC REFERENCE SIGNAL ATTENUATOR
Besides handling digital waveforms decoded from parallel input
data, the AD5546/AD5556 handle equally well low frequency
ac reference signals for signal attenuation, channel equalization,
and waveform generation applications. The maximum signal
range can be up to ±18 V (see Figure 22).
SYSTEM CALIBRATION
The initial accuracy of the system can be adjusted by trimming
the voltage reference ADR0x with a digital potentiometer (see
Figure 23). The AD5170 provides an OTP (one time program-
mable), 8-bit adjustment that is ideal and reliable for such cali-
bration. The Analog Devices, Inc., OTP digital potentiometer
comes with programmable software that simplifies the factory
calibration process.
