In this paper, a method of extending 1 bit by adding an external device to a parallel interface type Digital-to-Analog conversion(D/A C) circuit is presented. To do this, the principle of the D/A C circuit was examined, and the problems that occur when extending one bit by adding individual devices were analyzed, and a bit extension method of the D/A devices using an OP-Amp. circuit was presented. As the proposed method uses the high-precision characteristics of the OP-Amp., even if an error occurs in the device, only the overall size of the output waveform is affected, and the voltage reversal phenomenon that occurs between each bit does not occur. In order to confirm the effect of the proposed method, an experimental circuit was constructed and the absolute voltage of the output and the relative error were measured. As a result, a voltage error of 0.0756% appeared, confirming that the 0.195% requirement for one bit expansion by adding individual devices was sufficiently satisfied.
