Overview

This Video DAC specifies a 3-channel 10-bit resolution, high performance, low power CMOS Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) which offers exceptional direct current and alternating current performance and supports update rate up to 240MSPS with a stand-by mode to reduce the power dissipation.

The segmented current steering architecture is combined with a proprietary switching technique to reduce spurious components and enhance dynamic performance. Edge-triggered input latch and temperature compensated bandgap reference have been integrated to provide a complete monolithic DAC solution.

Specifying a PLL Part 1: Calculating PLL Clock Spur Requirements from ADC or DAC SFDR

In high end RF systems, such as 5G radios, the requirements are so stringent that the source of this strongest unwanted tone can be the PLL. This article outlines how spurs in the input clock to the ADC or DAC may limit the SFDR. This in turn will set the requirements for the spurs for the input clock (from a PLL), in order to achieve a specific SFDR.
