Abstract:
A digital-to-analog converter (DAC) controller system may be configured for controlling switching in an associated digital-to-analog converter (DAC), based on a plurality of system inputs that include at least a first system input corresponding to an input applied to the DAC for controlling switching therein, and a second system input that includes a reference control signal. The DAC controller system may include a logic gate circuit that generates a gate output based on two gate inputs that include the first system input and an input set based on the second system input; and a plurality of timing circuits that generate timing outputs for controlling timing of switching in the DAC, which include at least one timing circuit that generates a timing output based on the gate output, with the timing output configured for application in conjunction with and for adjusting a timing output of another timing circuit.
