Current DAC to Voltage DAC Circuit Analysis

The circuit in the figure is an example circuit provided by ADI for converting a current DAC to a voltage DAC output. The subsequent amplification circuit is equivalent to a transimpedance amplifier. A typical application scenario is the interface section of a photodetector, converting the output of the photodetector into a voltage output. Deriving the … Read more

01What is Kirchhoff’s Theorem? Kirchhoff’s Current Law: The algebraic sum of currents entering and leaving any node in a circuit is zero. Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law: The algebraic sum of voltages in any closed loop of a circuit is zero. 02Thevenin’s Theorem A two-terminal circuit containing independent sources, linear resistors, and controlled sources can be equivalently … Read more
