A flexible and programmable circuit for generating a radio frequency signal for transmission includes two delta-sigma modulators, a quadrature clock generator for generating two clock signals having a 90 degree phase difference, two commutators for multiplying the two modulator outputs by +1 and -1 on alternating half cycles of the two quadrature clock signals respectively, a summer for summing the two commutated outputs, and a filter for removing unwanted frequency components before transmission. The circuit directly generates a radio frequency signal without the need for additional frequency translation after the commutation stage.
