After amplifying the deviation signal, the robustness of the DAC-PUF circuit has increased significantly. The DAC-PUF circuit is designed in TSMC 65 nm CMOS technology and the layout occupies 86.06 × 63.56μm^2. Monte Carlo simulation results show that the reliability of the DAC-PUF circuit is above 98% over a comprehensive range of environmental variation, such as temperature and supply voltage.展开更多

The central symmetry random walk scheme is applied for current source arrays to avoid mismatching effects in nano-CMOS design. The high-speed latch drivers can be self-adaptively connected to switches in different voltage domains. The experimental data shows that the maximum DNL and INL are 0.42 LSB and 0.58 LSB. The measured SFDR at 1.7 MHz output signal is 58.91 dB, 58.53 dB and 56.98 dB for R/G/B channels, respectively. The DAC has good static and dynamic performance despite the single-ended output. The average rising time and falling time of three channels are 0.674 ns and 0.807 ns. The analog/digital power supply is 3.3 V/1.1 V. This triple-channel DAC occupies 0.5656 mm^2.展开更多

From the point of view of speed, the key bottleneck is the unit ca- pacitor size. In this paper, a small size three-dimensional （3-D） metal-oxide-metal （MOM） capacitor is proposed. The unit capacitor has a capacitance of 1-fF. It shapes as an umbrella, which is designed for fast settling consideration. A comparison among the proposed capacitor with other 3-D MOM capacitors is also given in the paper. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the MOM capacitor, a 6-b capacitive DAC is implemented in TSMC 1P9M 65 nm LP CMOS technology. The DAC consumes a power dissipation of 0.16 mW at the rate of 100 MS/s, excluding a source-follower based output buffer. Static measurement result shows that 1NL is less than -4-1 LSB and DNL is less than ＋0.5 LSB. In addition, a 100 MS/s 9-bit SAR ADC with the proposed 3-D capacitor is simulated.展开更多

This DAC is implemented using time division multiplex access system architecture in the digital domain. The input data is received with a two-channel LVDS interface. The DLL technology is introduced to meet the timing requirements between phases of the LVDS data and the data sampling clock. A FIFO is designed to absorb the phase difference between the data clock and DAC system clock. A delay controller is integrated to adjust the phase relationship between the high speed digital clock and analog clock, obtaining a sampling rate of 2 GSPS. The current source mismatch at higher bits is calibrated in the digital domain. Test results show that the DAC achieves 74.02 dBC SFDR at analog output of 36 MHz, and DNL less than ±2.1 LSB ＆ INL less than ±4.3 LSB after the chip is calibrated.展开更多
