Abstract
Digital-to-analog converters ( , or ) produce intentionally nonlinear outputs. When outputs of a plurality of lower bits are replaced by a next higher bit, a downward step ( or ) is produced in an output voltage ( , or ). Each of the downward steps ( or ) results in production of substantially equal output voltages in response to two different digital numbers being inputted. The digital-to-analog converters ( , or ) of the present invention are useful in frequency-hopping oscillators ( , or ), in phase-locked oscillators ( , and ), and in other electronic systems that include a learning path ( , or ) with a digital-to-analog converter.
