A Low power 6-bit R-2R ladder Digital to Analog Converter is presented in this paper. Here the    R-2 R network designed using resistors with only two values-R and 2xRand the switch is designed by using both NMOS and PMOS Transistors. This Digital to Analog Converters operated with low voltage, by applying dynamic threshold MOSFET (DTMOS) logic. This design achieved less INL and DNL which is 0.3 and 0.06 respectively. Power supply required to operate this device is only 1V with10GHzconversion rate. This design is implemented by using 0.18μm CMOS technology.

A 3GS/s 12-bit current-steering digital-to-analog converter (DAC) fabricated in 55 nm complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) technology has been presented. A partial randomization dynamic element matching (PRDEM) method based on switching sequence optimization is proposed to mitigate the mismatch effect and suppress the harmonic distortion with low hardware complexity. In the switching current cell, the cascode structure together with “always-ON” small current sources are used to keep the output impedance high and uniform. A compact layout of the switching current array is carefully designed, featuring short wires routing and small parasitic capacitance. According to the measured results at 3GS/s, this DAC demonstrates a spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of 74.64 dBc at low frequency and 50 dBc at 1.5 GHz output. The chip occupies an active area of 0.2 × 0.48 mm2 and consumes a total power of 495 mW.

The design and operation principle of a multi-sensor Converter of binary mechanical signals into electrical signals based on a partitioned fiber-optic digital-to-analog Converter with a parallel structure is considered. The digital-to-analog Converter is made from a set of simple and technological (three to five digit) fiber-optic digital-to-analog sections. The advantages of the optical scheme of the proposed. Converter in terms of metrological and energy characteristics in comparison with single multi-bit converters are justified. It is shown that by increasing the number of digital-analog sections, it is possible to repeatedly increase the information capacity of a multi-sensor Converter without tightening the requirements for its manufacturing technology and element base. A mathematical model of the proposed Converter is developed that reflects the features of its operation in the mode of sequential time conversion of the input code vectors of individual fiber-optic sections into electrical analogues and the formation of the resulting output code vector.
