    Here is drawing as attachment, note the TL084 wont even turn on without VCC(+) and VSS(-) of at least 8 volts each.. So you need a minimum of plus eight and minus eight for the opamp to turn on.

    Yes, sorry!
    I was trying to remember the Due characteristics from memory!
    I remember that it doesn't run on 5v, but at the lower rail voltage of 3.3v. I've got the circuit diagram for 5 to 3.3 & vice-Versa voltage translators. But no, I didn't realise the DACs were of a higher resolution, or had the 1/6 & 5/6 of the 3.3v Vref. I will bear your kind suggestions in mind.
    Thanks, Simon.

    Thanks Grix,
    I hadn't previously been able to get your circuit diagrams open using my iPhone before.
    But with those direct links I can see how useful your circuits are.
    Thanks, I will fire-up MultiSim & UltiBoard & model the circuits.

    Thank-you very much,
    Simon.
