Abstract
A digital-to-analog converter includes a clock driver, a first decoder, a second decoder, a current source matrix, a pseudo random mode generator and at least one multiplexer. The first decoder and the second decoder are coupled to the clock driver. The current source matrix is coupled to the first decoder, and the pseudo random mode generator is used to randomly output a set of selecting signals. Each multiplexer of the at least one multiplexer includes a plurality of input ends coupled to a plurality of output ends of the second decoder, an output end coupled to the current source matrix, and a select end coupled to the pseudo random mode generator for controlling the output end to output a bit signal inputted from the input ends of the multiplexer according to one selecting signal of the set of selecting signals.
