Abstract

An example programmable digital oscillator includes digital oscillation circuitry and a digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The digital oscillation circuitry includes exactly one digital multiplier, exactly one digital adder, and exactly two registers. The digital oscillation circuitry is configured to provide digital oscillation signals at one or more frequencies as a function of a programmable code, where the programmable code is provided as input to the exactly one digital multiplier. The DAC is communicatively coupled to the digital oscillation circuitry and is configured to convert the digital oscillation signals from the digital oscillation circuitry into analog oscillation signals.
