How can we find resolution?

Shivi said:   1 decade ago
Resolution of DAC (6 bits)in % given by

(1/2^6)*100=1.5625%

Resolution of DAC(n bits) in % is given by

(1/((2^n)-1))*100

For 6 bits,
(1/((2^6)-1))*100=1.58%

% resolution = (step size / full scale ) * 100

Now n bit DAC has total 2^n values possible with total 2^n -1 steps to reach full scale value from smallest value, with each step of 1 unit. therefore
resolution = (1/2^n-1)*100
