Hi all, I need an integrated waveform generator such as MAX038 from Maxim, but with a wider band (almost two times, or more, wider). Does anyone know a chip that works like this? Thanks. Daniele.

Hi,
Do you specifically need sine waves - or will square waves do?

Not a single chip solution, but you can do it with a software DDS running on a microcontroller, up to 200 kHz or so. I've got an example on my web site. With a 20 MHz ATtiny2313 it should go up to over 400 kHz.

Hi, thanks for your reply. I need a sine wave up to 40 or 50 MHz. MAX038 maaximum frequency is 20 MHz.

Look at the AD9850 etc. from Analog Devices.

I never used a DDS, I know that it's the best way, but I'm looking for something else. If you tell me that it's simple, then I'll try. Wher can I find a good tutorial for programming a DDS in order to obtain a sinewave in a large frequency bandwidth (e.g. 1-100 MHz)? And, above all, how much will I spend for a DDS?
