of the Main DAC to the bottom of the transfer function, VBIAS/16.
With twos complement coding the output of the DAC is cleared
to midscale which is VBIAS. A hardware clear always clears the
output of the Sub DAC to midscale thus the output of the Sub
DAC makes zero contribution to the output of the channel.

Figure 15 shows the bit allocations when 8-bit parallel operation
is selected in the system control register. DB9 to DB2 are re-
tained as data bits. DB1 acts as a high byte or low byte enable.
When DB1 is low, the eight MSBs of the data word are loaded
to the input register. When DB1 is high, the low byte consisting
of the two LSBs are loaded to the input register. DB0 is used to
select either the Main or Sub DAC when in the byte mode.

AD7805/AD7809 CONTROL REGISTERS
Access to the control registers of the AD7805/AD7809 is
achieved by taking the mode pin to a logic low. The control
register of these DACs are configured as in Figures 12 and 13.
There are two control registers associated with the part. System
control register which looks after the input coding, data format,
power down, system clear and system standby. The channel
control register contains bits that affect the operation of the
selected DAC. The external address bits are used to select the
DACs. These registers are eight bits wide and the last two bits
are control bits. The mode pin must be low to have access to the
control registers.

Each DAC has a separate channel control register. The follow-
ing is a brief discussion on the bits in each of the control registers.
DAC Selection (A2, A1, A0)
The external address pins in conjunction with CS, WR and
MODE are used to address the various DAC data and control
registers. Table IVa shows how these DAC registers can be
addressed on the AD7805. Table IVb shows how these registers
are addressed on the AD7809. Refer to Figures 12 to 16 for infor-
mation on the registers.

The external mode pin must be taken high to allow data to be
written to the DAC data registers. Figure 14 shows the bit allo-
cations when 10-bit parallel operation is selected in the system
control register.
