The output of the DAC can be attenuated in 0.125dB steps, so 0x200
would be -64dB.

register value | attenuation level (dB) | volume (%)
---------------+------------------------+-----------
   0x000        |     0.0                |  100
   0x001        |    -0.125              |
    ...         |    ...                 |  ...
   0x200        |   -64.0                |
    ...         |    ...                 |  ...
   0x3fe        |  -127.75               |
   0x3ff        |    -∞ (mute)           |    0

Thanks,
Sergej
