Abstract

See full text

A method is provided for linearizing variations in a transfer characteristic of a digital-to-analog (D/A) converter to which a digitized input signal is fed for being converted to an analog output signal. The method includes balancing the D/A converter so that essentially only negative differential variations result in the transfer characteristic at identified locations; determining amplitudes of the negative differential variations; and adding, with an inverse operational sign, the respective amplitudes of the negative differential variations to the input signal of the D/A converter at the respective locations of the variations.
