The ACVS comprises three parts:
The ACVS comprises three parts:
* a [[AD667]] 12-bit DAC (single output)
* [[Media:AD667.pdf|AD667]] 12-bit DAC (single output)
* [[CD4051]] analog switches and holding capacitors, implementing a set of sample and hold circuits
* [[Media:Cd4051b-q1.pdf|CD4051]] analog switches and holding capacitors, implementing a set of sample and hold circuits
* [[TL074]] opamps, providing a set of unity-gain output buffers
* [[Media:Tl074.pdf|TL074]] JFET-input opamps, providing a set of unity-gain output buffers
 
The output from the DAC is sampled and held, and the buffered voltages are fed to the rest of the plug-in.
The voltages in the sample and hold are periodically refreshed.


The ACVS is controlled by the [[M382]] chip, which also implements [[SDI]] and sequences the amplifier output enable signals.
