More Information
Summary:A signal generator includes a processing unit. The signal generator is configured to generate at least one periodic output signal. The output signal comprises a triangular-waveform signal. A frequency and an amplitude of the output signal are adjustable. The signal generator is configured to receive an input parameter. The input parameter comprises at least one piece of information about a setpoint amplitude and a setpoint frequency of the output signal. The processing unit is configured to determine a signal direction of the output signal. The processing unit is configured to determine a step size. The processing unit is configured to apply the step size to an actual amplitude based on the signal direction for a number of clock cycles. The number of clock cycles is dependent on the setpoint frequency of the output signal.
