Embodiments of the present invention provide a digital-to-analog conversion circuit, where the digital-to-analog conversion circuit includes a signal amplitude detector and a digital-to-analog converter. When the signal amplitude detector detects a low signal amplitude, a first current module in the digital-to-analog converter operates normally and a second current module in the digital-to-analog converter stops operating. In addition, when stopping operating, the second current module is in a state of a third bias voltage and a fourth bias voltage that are generated by a second bias circuit. When the amplitude detector detects a high signal amplitude subsequently, the second current module resumes normal operation. After operating normally, the second current module switches back to a first bias voltage and a second bias voltage that are generated by a first bias circuit. This reduces a nonlinearity problem caused before a second current module resumes normal operation.

The present disclosure relates to the field of microelectronics and solid-state electronics, and in particular to a calibration system and method for weighting errors brought about by parasitic capacitance in split capacitor-based successive approximation analog-to-digital converters. The method uses an MSB array that does not add additional capacitors, only a switch S.sub.M to reduce the comparator design difficulty. Meanwhile, an LSB array may add a calibration DAC array C.sub.A including a binary array of P-bit unit capacitors, a calibration structure C.sub.fraq, and a ground switch S.sub.k. The calibration structure C.sub.fraq includes four unit capacitors and two switches S.sub.1 and S.sub.2. By controlling the switches S.sub.1 and S.sub.2 different capacitance values can be generated to reduce the chip area consumption. This structure can reduce the error to LSB/4 and the weighting error of the ADC, and increases the effective number of bits of the ADC without excessively increasing comparator gain.
