A configurable output stage for a DAC channel can include an output stage that can receive an analog output from a DAC and outputs a signal to an output terminal. The output stage can be configurable between a voltage mode and a current mode. In the voltage mode, the output stage can supply the analog signal to the output terminal as a voltage signal. In the current mode, the output stage can supply the analog signal to the output signal as a current signal. The output stage can receive user input to select the desired mode. Consequently, an integrated circuit can be implemented with multiple DAC channels, each having the configurable output stage. A user can choose how many channels they want to operate in a voltage output mode, and how many channels they want to operate in a current output mode, depending on their individual requirements.
