1. A direct digital synthesis (DDS) circuit for removing phase quantization and truncation errors from a phase word received from a phase accumulator, the DDS circuit comprising:
a) a phase word truncator, wherein the phase word truncator truncates the phase word and outputs a phase error;
b) a delta-sigma noise shaper configured to remove the phase error from the phase word; and
c) a look-up table configured to output a sin amplitude word and a cosine amplitude word corresponding to the phase word.
