Abstract:
Binary frequency shift keying modulation is implemented by choosing appropriate phases of a high frequency clock to generate a modulated intermediate clock frequency. The high frequency clock is chosen to be (M+0.5)*fc, where fc is the carrier frequency and M is an integer. Depending on the binary data ‘1’ or ‘0’ to be transmitted, ‘M’ or ‘M+1’ clock phases from the high frequency clock are converted to an intermediate clock that is 2*N times faster than the carrier frequency, where N is an integer. This intermediate clock, generated entirely in the digital domain, has the required data modulation in it, and is used to generate N pulse width modulated (PWM) phases of waveforms operating at the carrier frequency. The N phases are then weighed appropriately to synthesize a sine waveform whose lower harmonics are substantially suppressed.

Abstract:
An apparatus includes an amplifier configured to compare a feedback input, corresponding to a voltage of an output voltage node, with respect to a reference input and to provide a control output to control the output voltage node based on a difference between the feedback input and the reference input. At least two source circuits are coupled with the output voltage node. Each of the source circuits are configured to provide respective voltage sources to supply electrical power to the output voltage node.
