[time-nuts] STEL Patent for 48 bit D/A based on NCO IC

Hi: While reverse engineering the Quantic (then Absolute Time, then ??) Q5200M Timing GPS receiver I came across a Stellar GPS patent that describes how this receiver controls it's 10 MHz output using a NCO IC as a 48 bit D/A converter. But I have not been able to find a modern replacement
