IEEE 1658-2023

This standard defines terminology and test methods to clearly document prevalent world-wide terms used to describe and test digital-to-analog converters (DACs). Although principally applicable to monolithic, hybrid, module DACs, most of the definitions and test procedures can be applied to systems containing DACs.

This standard is written to clear up confusion relating to the terms and definitions concerning DACs. Test methods are defined with expected output and analysis of the data generated from these test methods. Product specifications are defined in clear terms that will be understandable by all international users and manufacturers.

Revision Standard - Active. Terminology and test methods to clearly document prevalent world-wide terms used to describe and test digital-to-analog converters (DACs) are provided. It is restricted to monolithic, hybrid, and module DACs and does not cover systems encompassing DACs.
