Abstract
A digital-to-analog converter is provided. The digital-to-analog converter includes a first plurality of digital-to-analog converter cells configured to generate a first analog signal. Further, digital-to-analog converter includes a second plurality of digital-to-analog converter cells configured to generate a second analog signal. The first analog signal and the second analog signal form a differential signal pair. Further, the digital-to-analog converter includes a transmission line transformer comprising a first input node coupled to the first plurality of digital-to-analog converter cells, a second input node coupled to the second plurality of digital-to-analog converter cells, and a first output node. The transmission line transformer is configured to present a first impedance at the first and second input nodes and to present a second impedance at the first output node.
