Abstract

In this chapter the fundamental theory and advanced solution for oversampled DACs will be presented. Oversampled DACs are the only solution for audio codecs, which require DR in excess of 16 bit, THD in excess of 80 dB. For this reason audio cases are presented and studied in details. Finally the recent CMOS scaled technologies perform higher speed and then the concepts of oversampled DACs have been recently applied to larger bandwidth devices, indicating a future interesting development of oversampled DACs.
