6.6 Summary
The operational amplifier, discussed in this chapter, is the building block for many analog electronic systems. This device is used in conjunction with the interface board DAC0800 IC to form a complete digital-to-analog voltage converter system. Basic principles of two types of DAC circuits have been discussed including DAC characteristics and specifications.
In this chapter the important concepts of inheritance and polymorphism have been explained. How various access attributes interact with each other, and how various access specifiers affect the access attributes has also been described. We also learned how to use the scope resolution operator to call a polymorphic function from a base class. The DAC object created at the end of the chapter has all the functionality to drive the Digital-to-Analog Converter, and protects the member data of both the base class and the derived class at private level.
