The design and VLSI implementation of a new stochastic D/A converter using theproperties of Cellular Automata (CA) is presented in this paper. The converter isimplemented using a Double Layer Metal (DLM), 0.7 μm, N-well, CMOS technologyprocess provided by the European Silicon Structures (ES2). Its maximum conversionrate is 6 kHz and it is intended to be used in low-cost applications. Additionally, theproposed approach integrates into digital techniques more easily than other popularbuilding D/A techniques
