Abstract
In an embodiment a digital-to-analog converter includes a plurality of first capacitors, each having a first electrode and a second electrode, wherein the second electrodes are connected together and are connected to an inverting input of a first amplifier stage having its non-inverting input coupled to ground, a plurality of first switches, each of the first capacitors having its first electrode connected to a corresponding one of the first switches, wherein each of the first switches is configured to occupy a first state where the first electrode of a corresponding first capacitor is coupled to a first reference voltage and occupy a second state where the first electrode of the corresponding first capacitor is coupled to a second reference voltage different from the first reference voltage, a capacitive feedback circuit connected between the inverting input and an output of the first amplifier stage, the capacitive feedback circuit including at least one second capacitor and a controller.
