Abstract
A digital-to-analog converter that outputs an analog value representing a digital value includes a decoding stage and an interpolation stage. The decoding stage defines upper and lower bounds and the interpolation stage outputs an interpolated value that is between the upper and lower bounds. The upper and lower bounds are based on a most-significant portion of the digital value. The interpolation stage selects the interpolated value based on the least-significant portion of the digital value.
