Analog Crosstalk
Analog crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the output
of one DAC due to a change in the output of another DAC. It is
measured by loading one of the input registers with a full-scale
code change (all 0s to all 1s and vice versa), then executing a
software
LDAC
and monitoring the output of the DAC whose
digital code was not changed. The area of the glitch is expressed
in nV-s.
DAC-to-DAC Crosstalk
DAC-to-DAC crosstalk is the glitch impulse transferred to the
output of one DAC due to a digital code change and subsequent
analog output change of another DAC. It is measured by
loading the attack channel with a full-scale code change (all 0s
to all 1s and vice versa) with
LDAC
low while monitoring the
output of the victim channel that is at midscale. The energy of
the glitch is expressed in nV-s.
Multiplying Bandwidth
The multiplying bandwidth is a measure of the finite bandwidth
of the amplifiers within the DAC. A sine wave on the reference
(with full-scale code loaded to the DAC) appears on the output.
The multiplying bandwidth is the frequency at which the output
amplitude falls to 3 dB below the input.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the difference between an ideal sine wave and its
attenuated version using the DAC. The sine wave is used as the
reference for the DAC, and the THD is a measurement of the
harmonics present on the DAC output. It is measured in dB.
