Abstract :
Wideband digital-to-analog converters (DACs) are key to future high performance military electronic systems. This paper presents the results of an ultra wideband DAC based on advanced InP DHBT technology. The chip integrates a 40-to-10 bit digital multiplexer with a 10-bit DAC and associated clock generation.
