12-bit Digital to Analog Converter

A project for ECE 547 "VLSI Design" - Spring Semester 2007
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
University of Maine

Designed by: Jason Beaulieu


microchip

This chip contains two 12-bit 4MHz DACs. The chip also contains a isolated opamp and resistor segment for testing purposes. The DAC accepts a 12-bit digital input signal in binary format. The output is a 1.4Vpp sine wave of up to 2MHz, centered at 2.25V.

The project report contains a description of the project and details of the design and layout. It also contains testing results of the manufactured design.
