Embodiment 1

[0020] Embodiment 1: a high-speed and high-precision current steering digital-to-analog converter with 10-bit precision, its low-order current unit is composed of 4 binary current source units, and its high-order current unit controls 6 high-order, which includes 63 current source units. The 63 current source units are placed in the physical layout of the actual chip, and each unit is divided into four parts. These four parts are placed symmetrically in four quadrants, forming an 8×8 matrix in each quadrant. It is 8 rows and 8 columns, and the extra unit is a redundant unit. Since it is placed symmetrically in four quadrants, the units in each quadrant are opened in a specific order. Take the second quadrant as an example, see figure 1 , counting from left to right, the fourth column of the physical column is the first column to be opened, and the fifth column of the physical column is the second column to be opened. For the order of the number of columns to be opened, see fig...

Abstract

The invention relates to an unbalanced design method of a high-position current source unit of a current rudder-type digital-to-analog converter, which can effectively reduce integral nonlinearity errors, thus improving the accuracy of the high-speed and high-accuracy current rudder-type digital-to-analog converter. The unbalanced design method comprises a high-position current source unit structure under the existing sequence of specific switches and is characterized in that the current intensity can be regulated by adjusting width-to-length ratio (W/L) of a row MOS tube at the outmost edge of two sides of each quadrant current source unit matrix, thus leading the current to be unequal with the current generated by other row current source units in the same quadrant, and using unbalanced current difference to counteract second-order errors brought by a system.
