Overview

This IP is composed of a triple channel 10-bits 240 MS/s DAC, designed for industry standard 0.18um 1P6M CMOS technology supplied at 3.3V.
Each independent DAC uses a segmented current steering architecture, combined with improved twodimensional centroid switching scheme, to achieve simultaneously high update rates, at least 10-bit of intrinsic static accuracy, and a very good dynamic
characteristics.
The differential output supports single-ended applications and is designed to be loaded by double 75Ω line termination, (37.5Ω).
An external resistor, 1k8Ω typical is used to set the full scale current of the DAC.

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.
