Hi
Very interesting.
It sounds like dithering would be needed to get down to parts in 10^-14. If we
do that from an external device (PC / PIC / FPGA / whatever) it would be useful
to know the delay between the serial command and the DDS update. The more
variable the delay, the less accurate the dither.
Considering that you only need about 3 bits or so, and considering that
the internal step mechanism run with so low rate, achieving this should
not be all that hard really. It's not like there is a flashy GUI for the
PIC to keep up with. A little 8 pin PIC should pull it off with not too
high effort.
