Frequency Synthesis-Part 2: Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS)

Sponsor: Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI)
Webcaster: EE Times Education & Training

April 11, 2012 -- This webinar concludes a two-part series on frequency synthesis, with an introduction to direct digital synthesis. We give a basic review of how a direct digital synthesis system works, touching on the inner workings of the DDS engine at a relatively high level. We also discuss the trade-offs between PLL and DDS technology as a base choice for frequency synthesis needs.
