Abstract
A digital to analog converter is constructed using a neural network layer. The converter has inputs for receiving parallel bits of a digital input signal and an output for outputting an analog signal which is based on the digital input. Connecting the input and the output is a neural network layer which is configured to convert the parallel bits into an output analog signal that is representative of the digital input signal. The neural network may be hardwired and the synapses may rely on memristors as programmable elements.
