A VCO modulator controller including a ROM memory storing a number of waveform maps, a counter coupled to the ROM memory and capable of developing a sequence of ROM addresses, a temporal bit generator responsive to a data stream to develop a next bit Nb, a current bit Cb, and a past bit Pb, control circuitry developing a digital waveform signal from selected waveform maps in the ROM memory using the Nb, Cb, and Pb bits and the sequence of ROM memory outputs, and a DAC that converts the digital waveform signal to an analog VCO control signal that encodes said data stream. A method for providing a modulated control voltage includes: (a) storing a number of waveform maps in a memory; (b) generating a number of temporal bits including a next bit Nb, a current bit Cb, and a past bit Pb from a data stream; (c) developing a series of addresses for the memory to create a sequence of digital outputs; (d) developing a digital waveform utilizing said Nb, Cb, and Pb bits and the sequence of digital outputs of said memory; and (e) converting said digital waveform signal to an analog VCO control signal that encodes said data stream. |
