<p>A D/P converter (100) includes a controller (102) for controlling a plurality of D/P blocks (104, 106, 108). Each of the individual D/P blocks (104, 106, 108) provides an output signal (132, 134, 136) which is combined by a combiner (110) to produce an output signal (112). The D/P converter (100) produces outputs at a rate up to one per reference clock cycle. This allows for minimization of power consumption of the D/P converter (100) and/or improved frequency range for a synthesizer or other device utilizing the D/P converter (100).</p> |
