Abstract

A digital-to-analog converter (DAC) system includes a first DAC circuitry and a second DAC circuitry. An input splitter circuitry connected to the DAC system receives a first digital input code, and based on a value of the first digital input code, transfers the first digital input code to the first DAC circuitry for conversion to an analog output signal. The input splitter receives a second digital input code, and based on a value of the second digital input code, divides the second digital input code into a primary component and a secondary component, transfers the primary component to the first DAC circuitry for conversion to an analog output signal primary component, and transfers the secondary component to the second DAC circuitry for conversion to an analog output signal secondary component. An adding circuitry combines the analog output signal primary component and secondary component to provide a combined analog output signal.
