  1. Design of Digital-to-Analog Converter EE597G Presentation: Qin Chen Yong Wang Dept. of Electrical Engineering Mar. 14th, 2006

  2. Outline • CMOS switch design and simulation • Challenge and Solution • R-2R Voltage DAC • Schematic design and simulation results Chip Specifications • Project Progress

  3. CMOS Switch Circuit

  4. Turn on resistance Control signal is high: • When Vin<Vdd-Vgs1, M1 is turned on; • When Vgs2<Vin<Vdd, M2 is turned on; • The total parallel resistance make the turn-on resistance always low at the whole voltage range.

  5. Simulation Results VG=+5V, RL=10k Ohm VG=0V, RL=10k Ohm

  6. Challenge • For R-2R current DAC, how to change virtual ground to 2.5V in CMOS circuits? • How to get rid of glitches? • How to implement large resistors (>10k ohm) in layout? [next step]

  7. Glitches in DAC output voltages • Switches in DAC operate at different speeds ⇒ output glitches occur when several input bits change together: 0111->1000 • Glitches are very noticeable on a video display:

  8. Voltage-Mode R-2R Network DAC

  9. Advantages and Disadvantages of Voltage R-2R DAC Advantages: • the constant output impedance, which eases the stabilization of any amplifier connected to the output node. • No glitch, switch the arms of the ladder between low impedances, capacitive glitch currents tend not to flow in the load. Disadvantages: • operate over a wide voltage range (VREF to GND). This is difficult from a design and manufacturing viewpoint • gain of the DAC cannot be adjusted by means of a resistor in series with the VREF terminal.
