  • Patent number: 5124958
    Abstract: A digital synthesizer using Tau (time) synthesis. The digital Tau synthesizer employs a time accumulator to accumulate reference periods at the rising edge of each reference clock signal. The accumulator is then constrained to count reference pulses modulo Tp (the programmed period). The accumulated time is then used to gate out the pulse that occurs just before the desired time and to set up a delay line with the appropriate values for this delay.
