Lab 3 - ECE 421L
This lab will focus on the layout of the 10-bit DAC you designed and simulated in Lab 2
BackUp File:
As it is said in the first lab, I do not use online back up for any of my acedemic works. I save everything
on my computer and back up my computer using a hardrive., I do so, once a month.
This lab is a continuity of LAB2 in which I have designed a DAC using 10k resistors:
Shematic & Symbol:
The Following images will be attributed only to the layout of the DAC
In order to design the 10k resistor before instantiating it one has to
find the appropriate parameters,
with Rsquare = 800 Ohms/square the length and the width of a 10k
resistor would be:
10k = 800 * (L/W) with W = 3.6, we have L = 45.

Layout & extracted DAC:
After completion of the layout & the extracted DAC, the design pass the LVS check:
