Abstract:
A programmable digital-to-analog converter includes an analog circuit that converts a binary word into a value of analog voltage and a digital circuit that supplies the binary word starting from a maximum value decremented by a decrement value.

Claim (Index 13):
A circuit, comprising:\n a digital-to-analog converter configured to generate a voltage ramp signal, the digital-to-analog converter configured to receive a reset signal that causes a voltage of the voltage ramp signal to reset and a decrement signal that causes the voltage of the voltage ramp signal to decrement; and a triggering circuit configured to generate the reset signal and the decrement signal, said triggering circuit comprising:\n a first register configured to store a reset period value; \n a counter configured to count and output a count value; \n a first comparator configured to assert the reset signal when the count value equals the reset period value, the reset signal further causing the counter to reset; \n a second register configured to store an accumulated value; \n a second comparator configured to assert the decrement signal when the count value equals the accumulated value; \n a third register configured to store an increment value; and \n a summation circuit configured to add the increment value to the accumulated value and store a summed value in the second register as the accumulated value in response to assertion of the decrement signal.
