@Akash Levy could you please give suggestion or any reference about signal multiplier for changing the amplitude by giving 2 inputs one as DAC output and other PWM square waves.

Maybe you are looking for a level shifter?

With level shifter I guess it might be difficult to deal with various voltages 0.2,set voltage,reset voltage I guess transistors might not work due to that @Akash Levy
Is it possible to use this level shifter If so what range of transistor should be considered for various voltage shifting.

You said changing the amplitude, I thought you meant increasing the voltage. You can also use simple pass gate or pass transistor if you just want to pass through a smaller voltage than whatever Vdd you are using
You need level shifter if you are increasing voltage above your Vdd value, and can use pass gate below that voltage

ohh thank you so much i understood now

i am sorry for asking multiple questions. Which transistor should I use in Skywater to make a passgate with 0.2v?

I’m not familiar with which transistors exist in the open-source analog PDK, but if I recall, there are core (1.8V) transistors and I/O (3.3V) transistors. Both of them can be used; the core ones will be smaller area but have higher pass gate resistance. The I/O ones will be larger area, but you will see very small pass gate resistance. It’s up to you which to use based on your design strategy/constraints. You need to make sure the voltages you use are correct
