An example DAC generally includes a plurality of DAC cells, each DAC cell comprising a current source, a first switch coupled in series with the current source at a first node, and a switch driver having an output coupled to a control input of the first switch; and calibration circuitry having a first input coupled to a first DAC cell in the plurality of DAC cells and having an output coupled to at least one of the plurality of DAC cells, the calibration circuitry being configured to sense a voltage of the first node in the first DAC cell and to control the power supply voltage for the switch driver in the at least one of the plurality of DAC cells, based on the sensed voltage of the first node.

There is disclosed herein clock generation circuitry, in particular rotary travelling wave oscillator circuitry. Such circuitry comprises a pair of signal lines connected together to form a closed loop and arranged such that they define at least one transition section where both said lines in a first portion of the pair cross from one lateral side of both said lines in a second portion of the pair to the other lateral side of both said lines in the second portion of the pair.

A DA converter includes a first DA conversion section for obtaining an analog output signal in accordance with a digital input signal value, and a second DA conversion section for obtaining an analog gain control output signal in accordance with a digital gain control input signal value. In the DA converter, the gain control of the analog output signal generated by the first DA conversion section is performed on the basis of the gain control output signal generated by the second DA conversion section.

An apparatus, system, and method are provided for affording digital to analog converter (DAC) quantization noise that is independent of an input signal. In operation, an input signal for a DAC is received. Further, a particular signal is added to the input signal for the DAC, such that an output signal of the DAC includes quantization noise that is independent of the input signal (e.g. includes white noise, etc.), as a result of the particular signal being added to the input signal for the DAC.
