Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a digital-to-analog converter comprising an impedance network and a transfer function modification circuit. The transfer function modification circuit comprises a DAC and a demultiplexer. The demultiplexer may be used to selectively connect the output of the DAC to different respective nodes of the impedance network, allowing positive or negative currents to be injected into the node and modify the transfer function. By using a demultiplexer to selectively couple to different nodes, the node into which the current is injected may be modified post-manufacture, allowing transfer function modification.
