Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a system using a D/A converter for an audio application and calculate how an increase in DNL would affect the audio output. Include practical implications of your findings.

💡 Hint: Analyze how the attention to output quality must reflect in DNL numbers.

Challenge 2 Hard

Given a scenario of a purchasing decision on a D/A converter, evaluate how to choose one based on its monotonocity ratings. Construct guidelines.

💡 Hint: Review why certain applications require higher reliability during component selection.
