Abstract The LHC upgrade requires redoing the liquid Argon (LAr) calibration system which should provide a 16-bit range signal with 1‰ accuracy while being radiation tolerant. The fundamental operating principle remains unchanged: a precise current is stored in an inductor, and upon switching off the current, a pulse is generated for injection into the readout electronics. This is achieved by two chips: the first one, in CMOS 130 nm, provides the 16-bit DAC as well as the calibration management system; the second one, in XFAB 180 nm, embeds switches to generate the pulses. A description of both chips and measurement results will be presented.
