  • Abstract
    A 10-b binary-weighted D/A digital-to-analog converter based on current division is presented. The effective resolution bandwidth is 5 MHz at a maximum clock frequency of 40 MHz. The circuit is integrated in a 0.8-μm double-metal CMOS technology and the chip area is 0.4 mm2. This particular converter was realized by constructing the bit currents through a careful combination of unit current sources and by limiting the driving voltage on the gates of the current switches
