  • Scanning system for digital-analog converter
    Patent number: 3942171
    Abstract: A digital scanning system for a digital to analog converter. The scanning system includes an information counter for storing a plurality of digital bits I1, I2, I3....IN, with bit I1 being the most significant bit and bit IN being the least significant bit. Logic gates are connected between the information and interconnected shift registers. A clock applies clock frequency signals to the shift registers such that the digital bits are output in the periodic sequence I1, I2, I1, I3, I1, I2, I1, I4, I1, I2, I1, I3, I1...I1, I2, I1, IN. The periodic sequence of digital bits is applied to an integrator which outputs a voltage level representative of the periodic sequence.
