Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to a programmable multi-mode digital-to-analog converter (DAC) for generating a frequency-modulated signal. For example, certain aspects provide a circuit for sweeping a frequency of an output signal. The circuit generally includes a DAC having an input coupled to an input path of the circuit and an output coupled to an output path of the circuit, a first mixer selectively incorporated in the input path coupled to the input of the DAC, and a second mixer selectively incorporated in the output path coupled to the output of the DAC.

Claim (Index 6):
The circuit of  claim 3 , wherein, when the circuit is configured in a second mode of operation after the first mode of operation, the circuit is configured to:\n sweep the frequency of the digital input signal from the second frequency to the first frequency; and provide the digital input signal to an input of the first mixer, an output of the first mixer being coupled to the input of the DAC, and the output signal being generated at the output of the DAC.
