Abstract

An apparatus and method for power digital-to-analog converter protection are implemented. An attenuation value is set in response to the value of the supply voltage. The attenuation value is provided to a gain control, along with the input signal. A gain, offset by the attenuation value, determines the gain-adjusted output signal of the gain control generated from the input signal.
