A method according to one embodiment may include switching, by an integrated circuit, a plurality of switches to generate at least one output signal having a first amplitude and a second amplitude. The method according to this embodiment may also include controlling, by the integrated circuit, a conduction state of the plurality of switches to include a first conduction state and a second conduction state. The method according to this embodiment may also include minimizing, by the integrated circuit, the number of switch transitions between the first conduction state and the second conduction state of at least one switch when the output signal goes from the first amplitude to the second amplitude. Of course, many alternatives, variations, and modifications are possible without departing from this embodiment
