    • 4. What is the major advantage of the R/2R ladder digital-to-analog (DAC), as compared to a binary-weighted digital-to-analog DAC converter?

    • Options
    • A. It only uses two different resistor values.
    • B. It has fewer parts for the same number of inputs.
    • C. Its operation is much easier to analyze.
