A 7-bit 20 Msample/s Nyquist Current-steering CMOS DAC

This paper describes the design and the test results of a 7-bit high-speed CMOS DAC,which is implemented using a segmented architecture with 5 MSBs in unary way and 2(LSBs) in binary way.Current-source matching,glitch reduction,and error compensation aspects are considered.This DAC is fabricated by 0.35 μm Chartered double-poly four-metal CMOS technology.Experimental results show that a conversion rate of 20 MHz is achievable with differential and integral linearity errors of ±0.2 LSB and ±0.35 LSB,respectively.The full scale setup time is 20 ns and the chip area is 0.17 mm×0.23 mm.The power consumption is 3 mW for a single 3.3 V power supply.
