Abstract:
A multiplying digital-to-analog converter (MDAC) is provided. The MDAC includes a sub DAC decoding circuit, a capacitor-switch circuit, and an operation amplifier circuit. The capacitor-switch circuit includes at least two sampling capacitor sets which are coupled in parallel. The number of sampling capacitors in one of the sampling capacitor sets is larger than or equal to two. Each sampling capacitor set is coupled to an analog-signal input quantity through a sampling switch and to a corresponding output terminal of the sub DAC decoding circuit through a decoding switch. The sub DAC decoding circuit decodes a digital quantity and outputs a corresponding analog signal at each output terminal, such that the corresponding analog signals are applied to the respective sampling capacitor sets through the decoding switches and summed by the respective sampling capacitor sets to obtain an analog-signal quantity corresponding to the digital quantity.
