  • Abstract
    This paper describes a method to overcome matching errors due to the temperature gradient in silicon. A multi bit Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) is designed together with a high power line driver. The paper also describes the optimum value needed for w/l. The influences of fabrication errors on this optimum design are also discussed
