The provided is a digital-to-analog conversion circuit based on an R-2R ladder resistor network architecture. The digital-to-analog conversion circuit based on an R-2R ladder resistor network architecture includes: branch resistors, branch switches, bridge resistors, a first compensation resistor, a second compensation resistor and third compensation resistors; specifically, the compensation resistors (the first compensation resistor, the second compensation resistor and the third compensation resistor) are introduced into an R-2R network in a progressive way, a Differential Nonlinearity (DNL) introduced by mismatch between the compensation resistor and on-state impedance of the branch switch may effectively attenuate due to decrease of the resistance of the compensation resistor at a higher branch, even if it may increase with increase of the resistance of the compensation resistor at a lower branch, the lower DNL may attenuate per se, so the overall DNL will decrease.
