Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a DAC with a full-scale voltage of 10V and 4 bits of resolution, calculate the LSB voltage. What is the significance of this value in practical applications?

💡 Hint: Use the resolution formula and consider the role of precision in control systems.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design an R-2R Ladder DAC for a 4-bit system utilizing +5V V_REF. List the resistor values needed and sketch the circuit layout.

💡 Hint: Remember that for a 4-bit system, you will need 4 switches and corresponding resistors.
