Programmable Waveform Generator
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD9833 is a low power programmable waveform generator
capable of producing sine, triangular, and square wave outputs.
Waveform generation is required in various types of sensing,
actuation, and time domain reflectometry applications. The output
frequency and phase are software programmable, allowing easy
tuning. No external components are needed. The frequency regis-
ters are 28 bits; with a 25 MHz clock rate, resolution of 0.1 Hz
can be achieved. Similarly, with a 1 MHz clock rate, the AD9833
can be tuned to 0.004 Hz resolution.
The AD9833 is written to via a 3-wire serial interface. This serial
interface operates at clock rates up to 40 MHz and is compatible
with DSP and microcontroller standards. The device operates
with a power supply from 2.3 V to 5.5 V.
The AD9833 has a power-down function (SLEEP). This allows
sections of the device that are not being used to be powered down,
thus minimizing the current consumption of the part, e.g., the DAC
can be powered down when a clock output is being generated.
The AD9833 is available in a 10-lead MSOP package.
