A digital-to-analog converter circuit layout includes a ratiometric digital-to-analog converter. The ratiometric digital-to-analog converter includes a digital data input, a converter voltage output, a voltage controlled oscillator, and a pulse width modulation module. The a digital data input, a converter voltage output, a voltage controlled oscillator, and a pulse width modulation module is configured in a controllable manner for converting digital data received at the input to a converter output voltage at the output using a reference voltage, an adjustable current as a reference current, and an adjustable impedance value. The circuit layout is characterized in that the voltage controlled oscillator includes circuit components which multiply the reference voltage by a quotient between the adjustable impedance value and the adjustable current, and which apply the multiplication results to the pulse width modulation module.
