A digital to analog converter (DAC) includes an amplifier including a buffer of the DAC, and a resistor ladder arrangement coupled to a non-inverting input terminal of the amplifier to generate a voltage based on a digital control word. The arrangement includes a first, least-significant bit, segment arranged in one of an R-2R or unit-R configuration, a second, most-significant bit, segment including one or more units each including a second-segment-resistor having a resistor terminal coupled to a respective second switch and having a second resistance, RMSB, and a third segment including one or more third-segment-resistors coupled in parallel to the non-inverting input terminal and connected to a first reference voltage terminal. M2 designates a number of bits in the digital control word for controlling the second switches, and the third segment has a total resistance, Rsp, based on M2.
