Abstract
A 4 /spl times/ 40 W power DAC for car-radio audio systems has a 100 dB dynamic range and is realized in a 0.6 /spl mu/m BiCMOS/DMOS technology. EMI is reduced using a multi-bit DAC with a current-mode interface, DDWA algorithm and a class-AB amplifier with 2nd-order filtering. Total output noise of 25 /spl mu/V/sub RMS/ without signal yields a 110 dB SNR.
