I would think the noise numbers would kill most of the bits past 24. DAC noise is bad enough but do you have a 32 bit reference. To be real the reference voltage into the DAC need stable to 1 part in 4,.294,967,296 or just 0.004 ppm How can you use bits 25 to 32?
Just something to consider in your design. If you are using this as an attenuator then what is the noise level in the input signal.
