Abstract

This invention relates to Pade approximation convert circuit of the direct digital frequency synthesizer in which a multiplier receives and multiplies a first input signal and a variable signal so as to produce a multiplication signal; a divider receives and divides a second input signal and a variable signal so as to produce a division signal; an adder receives and adds the multiplication signal and the division signal so as to generate an output signal, that is then returned back to the divider. A quarter period of a sinusoidal wave signal is completed by the proceeding of direct calculation two times such that the time for the calculation of a complete sinusoidal wave can be saved and the area of the calculation circuit can be reduced.

Claims (14)

1. A Pade approximation convert circuit used in a direct digital frequency synthesizer, comprising:

a multiplier, receiving and multiplying a first input signal and a variable signal so as to produce a multiplication signal;

a divider, receiving and dividing a second input signal and a variable signal so as to produce a division signal; and

an adder, receiving and adding the multiplication signal and the division signal so as to generate an output signal which is then returned back to said divider.

2. A Pade approximation convert circuit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said Pade approximation convert circuit converts the signal into a quarter period of a sinusoidal wave signal.

3. A Pade approximation convert circuit as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a multiplexer for receiving a plurality of said first input signals and outputting one of said first input signals to said multiplier.

4. A Pade approximation convert circuit as claimed in claim 3 , wherein said multiplexer outputs one of said first input signals to said multiplier according to a selective signal.

5. A Pade approximation convert circuit as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the value of said first input signals is 3 or −7/3.

6. A Pade approximation convert circuit as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a multiplexer for receiving a plurality of said second input signals and outputting one of said second input signals to said divider.

7. A Pade approximation convert circuit as claimed in claim 6 , wherein said multiplexer outputs one of said second input signals to said divider according to a selective signal.

8. A Pade approximation convert circuit as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the value of said second input signals is 60 or 200.

9. A Pade approximation convert circuit as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a multiplexer for receiving said variable signal and said output signal, and outputting one of said variable signal and said output signal to said divider.

10. A Pade approximation convert circuit as claimed in claim 9 , wherein said multiplexer outputs one of said variable signal and said output signal to said divider according to a selective signal.

11. A Pade approximation calculation convert circuit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said variable signal is a phase accumulating signal.
