Abstract :
A current-output DAC with on-board calibration engine guarantees 16b monotonicity and achieves better than -160dBm/Hz noise power spectral density. Well bootstrapping, local bias generation and constant data activity techniques are combined to achieve better than -80dBc IMD to 300MHz at 400MS/s.
