Abstract:
A integrated circuit device includes digital-to-analog converter (DAC) circuitry including a resistor DAC that includes a resistor-two-resistor DAC configured to receive a first sub-word that includes a most significant bit (MSB) of a digital input signal and to output an analog output signal representative of the first sub-word, a resistor ladder configured to receive the analog output signal and a second sub-word that includes an intermediate significant bit (ISB) of the digital input signal and to generate an analog interpolated signal. The resistor ladder includes a plurality of resistor elements connected in series with one another to define a plurality of tap nodes, wherein a respective tap node is arranged between every two adjacent ones of the resistor elements, and a switching circuit having plurality of switches, wherein each switch is configured to selectively connect a respective one of the tap nodes to an output of the resistor ladder to generate the analog interpolated signal.
