A circuit for a delta-sigma digital-to-analog converter (DAC) includes a first stage with a delta-sigma noise-shaping loop. The first stage is capable of receiving an input signal, includes a first quantizer that has a first quantization error, and provides a first stage output. A first DAC receives the first stage output and provides a first analog output. A second stage receives the first quantization error. The second stage provides a second stage output to the digital differentiator. A second DAC receives a digital differentiator output and provides a second analog output. An adder adds the first analog output and the second analog output to provide a third analog output, so that the first quantization error is cancelled out and the inband noise is suppressed in the third analog output.
