Some off the devices supported by the binding have a shared reference for all DAC outputs, while others have a separate reference for each output. In addition to that some of them have an internal reference that can used, in which case the external reference is optional, otherwise the external reference is required. The bindings documentation should clarify on which applies to which device.
