Design and Implementation of a 16-Bit High Speed Digital to Analog Converter (DAC)
-
Abstract
A high speed and high resolution DAC with segmented current-steering is presented here by using mixed-signal CMOS technology.Meanwhile, with a novel current calibration technique, it can guarantee the high resolution and reduce the effect of gradient mismatch.The tape-out circuit test results show that the 16-bit DAC achieve favorable performance at conversion rates up to 400MSPS.
