Hello guys, 

I have a little problem with the sine wave from NCO generator.  

Schematic:

I want to produce a 0.5 MHz 10bit sine wave. On the oscilloscope i get something like this:

I am using DE0-CV BOARD with ladder 10 bit DAC. It seems to be a problem with the sign of amplitude but how to resolve it. 

Thanks for any suggestions :)

try invert sign bit before sending to DAC
