Abstract
Systems and methods according to one or more embodiments are provided for a high speed digital to analog upconverter that provides for converting a plurality of parallel digital data bits to an analog output signal. In one example, a system includes a decoder circuit configured to receive a plurality of decoder input data bits and provide a plurality of decoded parallel digital data bits. The system also includes a mixer circuit configured to combine each of the decoded parallel digital data bits with a conversion clock signal to provide frequency shifted digital data bits, wherein the frequency shifted digital data bits are time misaligned with each other. The system also includes a synchronizer circuit configured to time align the frequency shifted digital data bits. The system further includes a switching network configured to generate an analog output signal in response to the time aligned frequency shifted digital data bits.
