ABSTRACT:
A digitally controllable oscillator includes an oscillation generation means and an oscillator control, wherein the oscillator control comprises two digital/analog converters whose output signals are combined by a combiner in order to generate an analog input signal into the oscillation generation means. The second digital/analog converter is implemented in order to provide, in response to a digital increment in its digital input signal, a difference in the output signal of the second digital/analog converter which is smaller than a difference in the output signal of the first digital/analog converter when the first digital/analog converter is pulsed with the digital increment in its digital input signal.
