7.1.4.3 Band Select (LMV242 Only)

The LMV242 is an excellent choice for PA control loops with two PAs. Control the two outputs that steer the VAPC of the PAs with the band select (BS) pin. When the BS pin is high, OUT1 is selected. When the BS pin is low, OUT2 is selected. The output that is not selected is pulled low.
