Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for digital signal synthesis with variable sample rate digital-to-analog converters (DACs) in accordance with various embodiments of the invention are described. One embodiment includes a digital frequency generator that includes a direct digital frequency synthesizer (DDFS); a digital-to-analog converter (DAC); a frequency/phase estimation circuit; a stable reference clock (REF CLK); a variable frequency sample clock; a frequency control word (FCW); where the DAC is sampled by the variable frequency sample clock; where the DDFS is clocked by the variable frequency sample clock; where the frequency/phase estimation circuit receives as inputs the stable REF CLK and the variable frequency sample clock and estimates a FCW frequency error and adjusts the FCW to the DDFS; where the DDFS receives the FCW and outputs a digital sine codeword at the variable frequency sample clock to the DAC, where the FCW to the DDFS is continuously adjusted to track the variable frequency sample clock.
