2 Outline CMOS switch design and simulation Challenge and Solution R-2R Voltage DAC Schematic design and simulation results Chip Specifications Project Progress

3 CMOS Switch Circuit

4 Turn on resistance Control signal is high: When Vin<Vdd-Vgs1, M1 is turned on; When Vgs2<Vin<Vdd, M2 is turned on; The total parallel resistance make the turn-on resistance always low at the whole voltage range.

5 Simulation Results VG=0V, RL=10k Ohm VG=+5V, RL=10k Ohm

7 Challenge For R-2R current DAC, how to change virtual ground to 2.5V in CMOS circuits? How to get rid of glitches? How to implement large resistors (>10k ohm) in layout? [next step]

8 Glitches in DAC output voltages Switches in DAC operate at different speeds ⇒ output glitches occur when several input bits change together: 0111->1000 Glitches are very noticeable on a video display:

9 Voltage-Mode R-2R Network DAC

10 Advantages and Disadvantages of Voltage R-2R DAC Advantages: the constant output impedance, which eases the stabilization of any amplifier connected to the output node. No glitch, switch the arms of the ladder between low impedances, capacitive glitch currents tend not to flow in the load. Disadvantages: operate over a wide voltage range (VREF to GND). This is difficult from a design and manufacturing viewpoint gain of the DAC cannot be adjusted by means of a resistor in series with the VREF terminal.
