Digital to Analog converter

Thread Summary

The user asked about the smallest incremental voltage a 8-bit DAC can generate with a 10V reference. The engineer provided a hint to look at the DAC's LSB and Full-Scale values, suggesting the calculation of the voltage step size.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for reaching us!

    At first sight, this looks to me like a homework question.

    I will give you a hint so you can move forward with your problem:

    Have a look for the DAC LSB(Least Significant Bit) and FS(Full-Scale) values.

    Let me know if you still have issues!

    Best regards,
