Analog and Digital Converters - Technical MCQs

Q1:

Which of the following is a type of error associated with digital-to-analog converters (DACs)?

A nonmonotonic error

B incorrect output codes

C offset error

D nonmonotonic and offset error

ANS:D - nonmonotonic and offset error

Whenever there is no increase in analog output with the increase in digital input it is called as "non-monotonic error".

When no signal is given to the input and still there is some amount of digital output appears at the output of DAC is called as "offset Error".
