In addition, R36 can be used to achieve a pseudologarithmic
attenuation. To do so, adjust the R36 resistor until a desirable
transfer function is found.
Signal Amplifier
RDAC2 can be operated as an inverting or noninverting signal
amplifier supporting linear or pseudologarithmic gains. Table 6
shows the available configurations.

R43 and R42 can be used to set the maximum and minimum
gain limits.
The inverting amplifier with linear gain is shown in Figure 6,
and the gain is defined in Equation 5.
