Abstract :
A 12-bit linearity binary-weighted all MOS transistor D/A converter is presented. Experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of fabricating with high yield such a converter in a standard CMOS 0.7 μm technology. The output drives a doubly terminated 50 Ω coaxial cable. The full scale 10-90% rise/fall time is 4 ns. The active chip area is 1 mm2
