Abstract:
A digital-to-analog converter comprises a converter output ( 11 ), a dummy output ( 12 ), a first number N of current sources ( 13 - 17 ), a first switching arrangement ( 18 ), a first current divider ( 24 ), a second switching arrangement ( 31 ) and a second current divider ( 60 ). The current sources ( 13 - 17 ) are coupled via the first switching arrangement ( 18 ) to the converter output ( 11 ), the dummy output ( 12 ) or to an input current terminal ( 25 ) of the first current divider ( 24 ). The output current terminals ( 26 - 30 ) of the first current divider ( 24 ) are coupled via the second switching arrangement ( 31 ) to the converter output ( 11 ), the dummy output ( 12 ) or to an input current terminal ( 61 ) of the second current divider ( 60 ). The output current terminals ( 63 - 66 ) of the second current divider ( 60 ) are coupled to the converter output ( 11 ) or the dummy output ( 12 ).

Claim (Index 1):
A digital-to-analog converter, comprising\n a converter output, a dummy output, a first number N of current sources, a first switching arrangement, a first current divider with a second number K of output current terminals, a second switching arrangement, and a second current divider with a third number P of output current terminals, wherein each of the first number N of current sources is coupled via the first switching arrangement either to the converter output, the dummy output or to an input current terminal of the first current divider, wherein each of the second number K of output current terminals of the first current divider is coupled via the second switching arrangement either to the converter output, the dummy output or to an input current terminal of the second current divider, and wherein each of the third number P of output current terminals of the second current divider is coupled to the converter output or the dummy output.
