Using External Reference for the DC2692

To use an external reference to drive the DC2692, move 

the jumper named REF SEL (JP1) from the INT posi-

tion to the EXT position. Use the REF turret to drive the 

reference voltage. If this is done after the DC2692 was 

powered up, then the internal reference will need to be 

disabled from the control register.
