A 16 bit monolithic D/A converter is described. The device is fabricated with a thin film on CMOS process and uses laser wafer trimming (LWT) to obtain the required performance. The paper briefly discusses design techniques for high resolution D/A converters which have been investigated and describes the circuit finally used.

Functioning of telematic systems uses three types of equipments. The microprocessors, RAM, ROM and the keyboard interface are standard components, whereas the character generators and the image generators and lastly specific power supply and sweep circuits don't fall in the same category. The modems are also too expensive in relation to the prices which should be attained.

For the analysis of large circuits,a decomposition technique is presented which requires less computer memory and is efficient. Decomposition is carried out at physical structure level by removing few interconnections. This method is applicable for the analysis of linear and nonlinear circuits.
