DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG CONVERTER ARRANGEMENT WITH AN ARRAY OF UNARY DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG CONVERTING ELEMENTS USABLE FOR DIFFERENT SIGNAL TYPES

摘要

A digital-to-analog converter arrangement able to process input signals with different signal bandwidth is provided. The arrangement comprises a first input terminal for receiving a first digital input signal, a second input terminal for receiving a second digital input signal and switching means being coupled to the first and second input terminals and being adapted to select between the first and second digital input signals so as to output an intermediate digital signal corresponding to the selected one of the first and second digital input signals. The intermediate digital signal is received by an array of unary digital-to-analog converting elements, each unary digital-to-analog converting element being adapted so that, as an analog output signal, a sum signal of output signals of the unary digital-to-analog converting elements is output.
