Abstract
The perceived sample rate at which a DAC can operate can be increased by allowing multiple DACs to process different portions of a digital signal in parallel. In this way, the outputs of multiple DACs can be combined into a single analog signal to achieve the desired speeds and resolutions of the analog output. This parallel processing can be implemented using a time-interleaving technique or a sub-band reconstruction technique. Pre-distortion can be applied to the digital input signal to compensate for degradation detected in the analog output signal. By applying pre-distortion, waveforms having high sampling rates can be efficiently generated.
