Digital to Analog Converter with Iterative Stepping to Each Output Value: 10,243,580

A digital to analog converter (DAC) that provides an output that is iteratively stepped as the DAC increments or decrements from its digital input to analog output. The DAC has configurable registers to store a timer count value, an iteration value, and the input value. A state machine compares the iteration value to current DAC values, and adds or subtracts the iteration value until the final output is reached.
