    Abstract: In an example, a multistring DAC is described and includes at least two DAC stages. Each DAC stage includes a string of impedance elements and a switching network. In one configuration, the multi-string DAC is configured to use the voltage change at terminals of a first string separately to the voltage drop across a first switching network that couples the first and second strings to provide an analog output in response to a digital input to the DAC.

    Abstract: An example transconductance circuit is provided in accordance with one embodiment. The transconductance circuit can comprise: an output node; at least one transistor; a variable resistance; and a differential amplifier; wherein the at least one transistor and the variable resistance are in series connection with the output node, an output of the differential amplifier is connected to a control node of the at least one transistor, a first input of the amplifier is responsive to an input signal, and a second input of the amplifier is responsive to a voltage across the variable resistance. Such a circuit may overcome noise problems in transconductance circuits which operate over a wide range of input signals with a fixed resistor in series with the at least one transistor.

    Abstract: A multi-string DAC is described and comprises at least two DAC stages. Each DAC stage comprises a string of impedance elements and a switching network. In one configuration, the DAC comprises a first and second switching network, the second switching network providing multiple switched paths which compensate for impedance effects of the second string and provides multiple state changes at the output node of the DAC.
