Single chip 500 MHz function generator

A time-to-amplitude conversion chain (TACC) for time interval measurement

“…An integrated CMOS waveform generator operating at high speed has been proposed [7]. Digital frequency synthesis is another possible way to produce a precise highfrequency triangular waveform generator [8]. Using one of these techniques to implement the TACC, and benefiting from their short (300-500 ps) delays, the 5 MHz triangular wave generated is expected to exhibit linearity over 99.5% of its period.…”
