I don't think so. Driving 3 inputs together would result in a
memory LSB weight of 7, while the next higher bit would have a weight of 8.
We'd want each bit to have twice the weight of the next lower bit, and this
wouldn't do that.
So if there aren't enough pins available, the best choice is to zero
the unused DAC LSBs, as you planned.
