AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY AIMED AT ANALYSING HORIZONTAL QUANTIZATION AND TIME-BASE JITTER EFFECTS IN WAVEFORMS GENERATED BY MEANS OF DACS

Aldo Baccigalupi, Mauro D’Arco
Abstract:
This work analyzes the imperfections that characterize waveforms generated by means of DACs. The attention is mainly paid to horizontal quantization, which is due to the discrete nature of the waveform to be played. Also the effects of time-base jitter, which occur in DAC functioning, are investigated when combined to horizontal quantization. Further remarks are related to other minor effects such as those caused by vertical quantization, which is due to the limited resolution of any DAC
Keywords:
Time-base jitter, DAC errors
