Abstract
An apparatus employing control words to present a synthesized output signal having an output frequency and a delay with respect to an input signal includes: (a) A multiplexer receiving the input signal and having an output and an address input. (b) An output unit generates the output signal in response to a drive signal from the multiplexer. (c) A first register coupled with the multiplexer output. (d) A second register coupled with the multiplexer and the first register. The first register responds to a multiplexer output signal to provide a first control signal to the second register based upon the control words. The second register responds to the multiplexer output signal to provide a second control signal to the address input based upon the first control signal and the control words. The multiplexer presents the drive signal in response to the second control signal.
