Abstract :
A new switching technique for improving the accuracy and speed of CMOS current-cell digital to analog converters (DACs), called the incremental-switching technique, is described. The maximum accuracy and speed of DACs using the incremental-switching technique are higher than 10 b and 1 GHz, respectively
