Abstract

A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, includes: causing a multi-bit input to be split into two or more chunks, where each of the two or more chunks include at least one individual bit. Each of the two or more chunks are also converted into a respective pulse width modulated signal, and a partial result is generated in digital form for each of the respective pulse width modulated signals. Each of the partial results are scaled by a respective significance factor corresponding to each of the two or more chunks, and the scaled partial results are also accumulated.
