A simple circuit for implementing a current-switching digital-to-analog converter is presented. The circuit uses operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs) for switching a number of equal-value current sources. An R-2R ladder attenuator is used to scale the currents in a binary form. Experimental results show good performance.

The design and operation principle of a multi-sensor Converter of binary mechanical signals into electrical signals based on a partitioned fiber-optic digital-to-analog Converter with a parallel structure is considered. The digital-to-analog Converter is made from a set of simple and technological (three to five digit) fiber-optic digital-to-analog sections. The advantages of the optical scheme of the proposed. Converter in terms of metrological and energy characteristics in comparison with single multi-bit converters are justified. It is shown that by increasing the number of digital-analog sections, it is possible to repeatedly increase the information capacity of a multi-sensor Converter without tightening the requirements for its manufacturing technology and element base. A mathematical model of the proposed Converter is developed that reflects the features of its operation in the mode of sequential time conversion of the input code vectors of individual fiber-optic sections into electrical analogues and the formation of the resulting output code vector.

This work determines the coded control of a sectional electroelastic engine at the elastic–inertial load for nanomechatronics systems. The expressions of the mechanical and adjustment characteristics of a sectional electroelastic engine are obtained using the equations of the electroelasticity and the mechanical load. A sectional electroelastic engine is applied for coded control of nanodisplacement as a digital-to-analog converter. The transfer function and the transient characteristics of a sectional electroelastic engine at elastic–inertial load are received for nanomechatronics systems.
