Abstract

The invention provides a dynamic correcting device of a digital analog converter. The dynamic correcting device is added between input and output of a current-steering digital analog converter and comprises delay circuits, correcting current generators, current switches and a logic control circuit. Number of layers of correction channels formed by the delay circuits, the correcting current generators and the current switches can be flexibly set according to correction accuracy. A dynamic correcting method of the digital analog converter includes: in a correction preparation stage, sampling burrs, converting the burrs into correction information and storing the correction information; and in a normal working stage, reading the correction information, and outputting current pulses to compensate burr signals. Multiplex correction current pulses are superposed to correct output current of the digital analog converter successively in a time-phased mode, burrs of the output current are compensated and offset, the technical problem of over-low dynamic performance caused by the burrs is solved, and the internal structure of the digital analog converter is unchanged; the circuit dynamic performance is improved, impact on circuit speed and accuracy is small, and range of use is wide.
