Abstract

A signal generating circuit, may include an analog signal generator having an output and a control input, the analog signal generator configured to generate at the output an analog output signal in accordance with a timing parameter; an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) having an input and an output, the input coupled to the output of the analog signal generator, the ADC configured to generate a sequence of signal values dependent on the analog signal received at the input; a configurable digital signal generator comprising an output and a control input, the digital signal generator configured to generate a digital output signal in accordance with signal parameters received at the control input; and a control circuit having an input coupled to the output of the ADC.
