Dear Rik, Gary, LF Group,
If that is the case there is no need to get a nice sine (through a LPF
and bufferamplifier), most convenient is to pick up the 274kHz signal
somewhere at TLL or CMOS level.

The output of the DDS is actually the output of a digital to analogue
converter, and at 274 kHz the signal on the output pin of the DDS chip
will be a pretty good approximation to a sine wave anyway. The function
of filtering in the circuit is to remove "alias" frequency components
arising due to the sampled-data nature of the output signal. So there
isn't actually a logic-level signal in the circuit. You could of course
add a squaring circuit giving a logic-level square wave after the DDS
output filter.
