Abstract
A signal generation circuit that uses a waveform generation mechanism to generate predetermined waveform(s) when triggered. A triggering mechanism is configured to repeatedly trigger the waveform generation mechanism at times that are dependent on data provided by a data source. The predetermined waveform may be a bandwidth-limited pulse, but might also be a rising edge or a falling edge of a pulse. Various consecutive waveforms may be summed together to thereby formulate a continuous signal. The waveform may have particular characteristics by design.
