Hi to all to forum members,
I have a CMOS DAC chip with 12bit and 6 bit current steering DAC, and want to characterize it its INL DNL settling time with offset and gain error.I want to test the chip in school setting.
Only equipments I have in lab is a mixed signal scope, a function generator and bunch of DC power supply. For an ADC or precisely for digital outputs I just have few counters ( TTL chips), also I have access to MATLAB.
I don't have spectrum analyzer in my lab and have to learn to use one ( which is not a problem), I want to know with stuff mentioned, at my disposal, how can I go ahead and test my DAC chip for INL and DNL.
Any ideas by any users are appreciated.
regards
S
