Abstract: The present invention provides a digital to analog conversion method and system that uses piezoelectric effect and magnetic induction to reconstruct the infinite analog values between discrete digital samples. This magnetic-piezoelectric armature delivers an output analog signal of a smooth continuous nature that provides a more faithful representation of the original analog signal.

The magnetic-piezoelectric armature uses a highly sensitive piezoelectric material that moves a magnet in the proximity of a wire coil to induce a voltage signal reproducing the original analog signal. The piezoelectric material expands and contracts following the changes in voltage between digital samples which induces a corresponding continuous analog voltage signal in the coil.
