RE: Looking for serious reading material

I'll have to look some more details on DDS circuitry. The patent that I read was mostly about the complete system and didn't contain much information on the specific DDS circuit. What it said pretty much matched my model of how such a device might work, except for some additional detail of the DS DAC used to generate the quadrature synthesized waveforms. (Which I didn't understand, in that no one really understands DS modulators, or at least if they do they aren't talking... )

Thanks for your help. Incidentally, I would be curious to see how your DAC sounds when playing PCM files converted in the computer to DSD128 by various programs such as HQPlayer, vs. how the same files sound when the native PCM is converted by your FPGA. Perhaps some of the reviewers can conduct these listening tests.
