Questions tagged [dds]
A direct digital synthesizer (DDS) creates waveforms from a single frequency reference clock. Typically the reference frequency is fed into a numerically controlled oscillator (NCO) that controls the final frequency and waveform type from where the quantized digital data is converted to analog using a digital to analog converter (DAC).
