Alternating DAC sampling frequencies spreads alias power across Nyquist zones, easing filtering while keeping the same output frequency.
Selective MSB randomization and calibration improve DAC linearity across low and high frequencies without added area or latency.
Segmented chirped-pulse Fourier transform spectroscopy expands measurable bandwidth through heterodyne downconversion and fast DAC-generated sweeps.
Segmenting constellation regions and shifting LO phase cuts RF power loss while preserving wideband modulation and simpler DAC usage.
Parallel DAC slices use dynamic shuffling to cut integral non-linearity while preserving fast code response and low noise.
An RF DAC combines frequency conversion and filtering to cut circuit stages, noise, distortion, and cost in broadband signal transmission.
Multi-stage switched resistor networks and Gray code conversion improve DAC speed, cut output glitches, and lower power use.
Adaptive digital offsets help segmented DACs cut mismatch errors and differential nonlinearity, improving SFDR in backoff conditions.
On-board feedback checks the current interface during operation, detecting drift and extending calibration intervals without external test equipment.
