Abstract
A circuit for reconstructing an analog signal starting from a digital input signal includes a digital to analog converter and a low pass-filter connected at the output of the converter for receiving the analog format signal and outputting a reconstructed analog signal. The low pass filter is an active filter continuous in time and current-coupled to the output of the digital-analog converter. The digital-analog converter is of the current-steering type functioning at a sampling frequency greater than the Nyquist frequency of the analog signal.
