    Abstract: A digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is described. The DAC comprises a resistor having a resistance R and a capacitor having a capacitance C. The DAC comprises a first switching element configured, in response to a first control signal, to couple the capacitor to a first rail via a path having a resistance less than R and a second switching element configured, in response to a second control signal, to couple the capacitor to the first rail through the resistor. The DAC also comprises a third switching element configured, in response to a third control signal, to couple the capacitor to a second rail (8) via a path having a resistance less than R and a fourth switching element configured, in response to a responsive to a fourth control signal, to couple the capacitor to the second through the resistor. The capacitor can be quickly charged or discharged over a period less than RC or less than 0.7 RC. The DAC may comprise a first control element configured to switch on the second switching element before switching on the first switching element and a second control element configured to switch on the fourth switching element before switching on the third switching element.

    Abstract: A digital-to-analog converter (DAC) may include a conversion block providing a first analog value. The DAC may also include an amplification block for receiving the first analog value and providing a second analog value amplified by an amplification factor. The amplification block may include a first input terminal for receiving the first analog value, a second input terminal, and an output terminal for providing the second analog value. The amplification block may also include a first capacitive element and a second capacitive element. The first and second capacitive elements may determine the amplification factor. The amplification block may further include a control unit for recovering a charge at a first terminal of the second capacitive element, and based thereon, the second analog value.
