Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to circuitry and techniques for digital-to-analog conversion. One example system for digital-to-analog conversion generally includes a first digital-to-analog converter (DAC) having an input coupled to an input node of the system and a mixing-mode DAC having an input coupled to an input node of the system. The mixing-mode DAC may include a second DAC and a mixer, an output of the second DAC being coupled to an input of the mixer. The system may also include a combiner, wherein an output of the first DAC is coupled to a first input of the combiner, and wherein an output of the mixer is coupled to a second input of the combiner.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) circuit. The DAC circuit generally includes: a decoder coupled to an input of the DAC circuit and current-steering cells coupled to an output of the decoder. Outputs of the current-steering cells may be coupled to a positive output node and a negative output node of the DAC circuit. The DAC circuit may also include an offset detection circuit including: a comparator having a first input and a second input selectively coupled to the positive output node and the negative output node; and a digital controller having an input coupled to an output of the comparator and an output coupled to the decoder. In some aspects, the DAC circuit includes one or more calibration DACs coupled to the offset detection circuit.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to circuitry and techniques for digital-to-analog conversion. One example device for digital-to-analog conversion generally includes: a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) having an input coupled to an input node of the device; a first return-to-zero (RZ) DAC having an input coupled to an input node of the device; and a combiner, wherein an output of the first DAC is coupled to a first input of the combiner, and wherein an output of the first RZ DAC is coupled to a second input of the combiner.
