Abstract
A system for reducing digital-to-analog converter (DAC) resolution for an amplitude modulated signal comprises a first logic configured to determine a desired DAC output voltage range, a second logic configured to select a DAC reference voltage level corresponding to the desired DAC output voltage range, a third logic configured to select a number of digital bits for conversion to the analog domain, the number of bits chosen from a larger number of digital bits, and a DAC configured to receive the selected DAC reference voltage level and convert the selected number of digital bits to a signal in the analog domain.
