I have an op amp component buffering an internal 1.024V reference. I have connected a 1.2kΩ on the output. The voltage I get is 700mV instead of 1024mV. I need to source and sink 20mA from this pin. How can I do it?

SaKu,
Please make sure that you connected resistor to the Opamp direct output pin (P3_6, P3_7, P0_0, P0_1). Direct pins have low resistance, while other pins may have 250-500 oHm resistance path from Opamap to the resistor. So the resulting voltage will be something like V = 1.024V x 1200 / (500 + 1200) = 0.723 V.
Keep in mind that even direct connection has some resistance, and Opamaps have some bias offset, so the output voltage will not be exact 1.024V.
You can find discussion of the same issue here:

1: If you configure the Opamp as a follower, the internal 1.024 which be output should also be 1.024v.
2: connect the resistor: 1024mv/20mA
