ABSTRACT:
A data converter is disclosed that includes a multiplier for multiplying digital signal samples by a gain factor to produce multiplied digital samples. The multiplier can either be bypassed or a dither signal can be introduced in the multiplication operation. A multiplexer responsive to a select input selectively provides either the digital signal samples or the multiplied digital signal samples as the output of the multiplexer.
