Abstract
A digital to analog converter (DAC) includes an operational amplifier and a plurality of ladder elements. Each ladder element includes an epot for providing a voltage, a capacitor, and a switch for selecting between a first voltage and a reference voltage, and for providing the first selected voltage to the first capacitor. The output of the ladder elements are coupled to the inverting input of the operational amplifier. Alternatively, the ladder elements may use tunable floating-gate resistors.
