Digital-to-analog conversion is essential in digital signal processing applications, including closed-loop control schemes. Noise and distortion in digital-to-analog converters result in reduced performance for high-precision mechatronics such as nano-positioning. Glitches are common in practical switched systems such as digital-to-analog converters; observed as an output disturbance. Due to the wide-bandwidth, impulse-like behavior, control law bandwidth is generally too low to provide adequate attenuation; deteriorating open and closed-loop performance. This article demonstrates how large-amplitude high-frequency periodic dither mitigates the effect of glitches in a nano-positioning system under closed-loop control. Simulations are performed using a model that includes significant non-linearities with a response fitted to an off-the-shelf commercial device, as well as using standard linear time-invariant models for other system components fitted to the responses of common, commercially available devices. The results highlight the significance of reconstruction filter design when applying dithering in this setting.
