In a binary-weighted digital-to-analog converter (DAC), the values of the input resistors are chosen to be proportional to the binary weights of the corresponding input bits.
A sample-and-hold circuit samples an analog value and holds it long enough for the analog-to-digital conversion to occur.
The relative accuracy of a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is determined by settling time.
One way to determine the resolution of a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is to compare the ratio of one step voltage to the maximum output voltage.
The flash method of analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) uses comparators that compare reference voltages with the analog input voltage.

If we double the number of bits in our digital representation of a number from 4 to 8 bits, we double the relative accuracy of the conversion from digital to analog.
A digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is said to be nonmonotonic if the magnitude of the output voltage increases every time the input code increases.
