Figure 8. Receive Number Controlled Oscillator

The NCO is a digital complex oscillator that is used to translate (or downconvert) an input signal of interest to

baseband. The block produces programmable complex digital sinusoids by accumulating a frequency word which

is programmed by the user. The output of the accumulator is a phase argument that indexes into a Sin/Cos ROM

table which produces the complex sinusoid. A phase offset can be added prior to indexing if desired for channel

calibration purposes. This changes the Sin/Cos phase with respect to other channels’ NCOs.

A 5-bit dither generator is provided and generates a small level of digital pseudo-noise that is added to the phase

argument below the bottom bit and is useful for reducing NCO spurious outputs.

DESCRIPTION

dither_ena(2)

When set turns dither on. Clearing turns dither off.

test_bits_1(1:0)

Test bits. MUST be cleared for normal operation.

The NCO spurious levels are better than –115 dBC. Added phase dither randomizes the periodic nature of the phase

accumulation process and reduces low-level spurious energy. For some frequencies (K

×Fs/24), dither is ineffective

– in these cases an initial phase of four reduces NCO spurs. Figure 9 and Figure 10 show the spur level performance

of the NCO without dither, with dither, and with a phase offset value.
