4.5
The device has a precision internal voltage reference
which provides a nominal voltage of 2.048V. The user
can select the internal voltage reference or V
voltage reference source of each channel using the
V
circuit is turned off when all channels select V
their references. However, it stays turned on if any one
of the channels selects the internal reference.

The LSB is defined as the ideal voltage difference
between two successive codes. LSB sizes of the
MCP4728 device are shown in
TABLE 4-4:
