DAC9106 Square generation and sawtooth frequncy

Question

Hey 
 1. I want to generate square wave using DAC AD9106. frequency should be 10 KHz to 10 MHz. Is it possible ? and If yes how. 
 2. I want to generate sawtooth wave form using DAC AD9106 with frequency up to 10 MHz. I have generated sawtooth waveform but cannot go above 18KHz. Please help me. 
 Thanks

Hi MRD18 , 
 To generate a square wave using AD9106, you may refer to FAQ10 AD9106 / AD9102 Low-Power DAC and Waveform Generator: FAQs . 
 Square wave is not one of the prestored waveform selections in AD9106, so you can generate your desired square wave vector then store it in the internal SRAM. You may use DPG Lite to generate the square wave, just make sure to set the correct DAC resolution. If you are using ACE software, you can use the Vector Generator Tool to generate the square wave. 
 To generate a sawtooth wave in AD9106, you may refer to FAQ17 in the same link.
