Abstract:
A dual 10b/200MSPS pipeline digital to analog converter (DAC) suitable for communication applications is here presented. It has been designed using a 4-metal level 3.3 V 0.5 /spl mu/m BiCMOS technology and operates on a 3-phase clock synthesized by an on-chip delay locked loop (DLL). The DAC shows 9.7 effective bits and 69.4 dB of spurious free dynamic range for a synthesized sine wave of 2 Vpp at 34 MHz and output rate of 200 MSPS. The 2 DACs and DLL occupy a total area of 3 mm/sup 2/ and consume 693 mW at full-speed.
