Dear stamper;
I need to lift up DAC1257 output (range 0 to 2.043V) to a range 2.4V
to 3.7V. I tried it with LM324 by giving offset voltage using 50k pot
to + terminal and DAC output feed to - terminal through 10k and their
is 10k pot feedback from output of LM324 to - termianal to control
gain of LM324 output. I forgot to tell that LM324 running on single
power(5V), not dual (-5V~5V). It did not work. please help me out.

    Not possible. The LM324 will go to a maximum of Vcc-1.5V, which for a
    'true' 5V would be 3.5V, and if your 5V is actually 4.75, it will be
    down at 3.25V.
