Latest Patents
Brian Stephen Carroll holds a patent for a Differential current-steering digital-to-analog converter. This invention focuses on differential, current-steering DACs with reduced small signal differential non-linearity. The design utilizes a set of binary-weighted steerable constant current generators. Each generator comprises a ternary constant current generator that produces a three-state differential current in response to a ternary signal on a control input. The DAC includes a code converter that connects a digital input to the control inputs of the steerable current generators. This converter transforms the binary input code into a ternary code, enabling the current generators to provide a differential analogue output. The smallest current source in this design is 1/2 I, where I represents the change in differential output current caused by a least significant bit change in the binary input code.
