Oscillator having a sixteen bit signal generation utilizing an eight bit processor

摘要

A programmable signal generator which utilizes an eight bit microprocessor to generate a sixteen bit signal. Information is passed from an eight bit processor having a sixteen bit address register into one or more latches to produce a sixteen bit digital signal. The generator may be utilized in a time delay spectrometer to produce digital signals in quadrature form which are analyzed by the system microprocessor.
