In this paper, The Design and Implementation low power Current Steering Digital to Analog Converter in 45 nm technology using GDI Logic using TANNER TOOL, V15 is presented. This architecture gives the most optimized results in terms of speed, resolution and power. The designed 6-bit DAC operates with two supply voltages, 1 V and 3.3 V. The simulation result shows the transient analysis waveforms of current Steering DAC. The average power dissipation is 364.06 μW. The tool used for simulation is Tanner S-Edit and T-Spice. Comparisons show that using GDI logic, it consists low power as compare to the CMOS logic.
