Question 1

What is the formula for output voltage in a Weighted Resistor DAC?

V_out = -R_f * V_REF * (D_N-1/R_0 + D_N-2/(2R_0) + ...)
V_out = R_f * V_REF * (D_N-1/R_0 + D_N-2/(2R_0) + ...)
V_out = R_f + D_N-2/(2R_0)

💡 Hint: Focus on the roles of V_REF and R_f in the equation.

Question 2

True or False: R-2R DACs require a broad range of resistors for proper functionality.

True
