A current-steering type digital-to-analog converter (DAC) is disclosed. The DAC includes a first sub-DAC, a second sub-DAC and a controlling device. Both the first sub-DAC and the second sub-DAC are configured to receive input signals. The controlling device selectively and periodically sends output signals of either the first sub-DAC or the second sub-DAC to a resistive load while sending output signals of the remaining one of the two sub-DACs to a dummy resistive load. An output of the DAC is provided at the resistive load.
