Digital To Analogue Converters

Digital To Analogue Converters

This board allows the study of the operating principle and of the main characteristics of a digital-to-analogue converter.
The board is composed of 3 independent sections:
A weighed resistances discrete components D/A converter
A discrete components D/A converter in a R-2R network
A monolithic 11 bit D/A converter

While the first two sections are used to highlight the operating principle of two different D/A converters, the third one is used to analyse the operating modes and the characteristics of the converters that are commercially available.

The board is supplied complete with a set of stackable, plug-in cables of suitable lengths and colours and with a training manual.
Power supply: ± 15 Vdc, 200 mA and + 5Vdc, 200mA
