Abstract :
This paper presents the results of a performance analysis of a novel dynamic element matching technique for low harmonic distortion digital-to-analog converters. The technique promises to be suitable for applications such as direct digital synthesis systems, wherein low hardware complexity is essential in addition to low harmonic distortion. As the main result of the analysis, the DAC can be designed such that the hardware complexity is reduced to a minimum while still providing a given least required spurious-free dynamic range
