Abstract
A digital sine/cosine wave generator generates discrete values representative of either a sine wave or a cosine wave. The digital sine/cosine wave generator generates sine and/or cosine waves by implementing a difference equation of the form y(n)=b*y(n−2)−y(n−1). One of the initial conditions of the difference equation is selected from a series of values generated by a coefficient generator. The frequency of the sine and/or cosine wave generated by the sine/cosine wave generator is dependent on, and may be selected according to, which of the series of values generated by a coefficient generator is chosen as an initial condition of the difference equation.
