  • Abstract
    In this paper, an InGaAs/GaAs HEMT technology is used to develop a high speed Digital to Analog Converter (DAC).The 4 bit R-2R architecture operates up to 5GHz is presented, and it shows the detailed static performance of DAC. A linear fit of the output voltage is done for calculating various parameters. It shows a very good DNL and INL, and stable offset and resolution over the frequency range up to 5 GHz.
