Abstract
A sine wave generator uses a phase-to-amplitude converter (PAC) which functions with a novel multiplier. By using pipelined adders, intermediate amplitude and slope data from storage are combined to get an output amplitude which is equivalent to that from a prior art multiplier but without the objectionable through-put delays inherent in prior art multiplier PAC's.
