How easy is it to build your own Digital to Analog Converter (DAC)? Although you can readily purchase a wide variety of DACs these days, building your own can be very instructive, as the [Sine Lab] on ...

In this series of DAC Basics, we start out by briefly discussing three architectures (Figure 1). This will give us a good frame of reference as we work through the critical digital-to-analog converter ...

Since most engineers went through intensive course work in engineering school studying the analog-to-digital converter (ADC), operational amplifier (op amp), digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and ...

Sometimes it seems as though digital designers get all of the attention. In all of the excitement surrounding "gigaFLOPS," "22 nm," and such, there's still one crumb of comfort for we non-digital ...
