These signals come in a few forms, as listed below. + +- triangle waves +- square waves +- sine waves +- sawtooth waves +- random noise + +These signals will be generated using PWM, this allows a digital signal to act as an analog signal. Using this method it is theoretically possible to create all of the aforementioned signals. + + +This figure shows an example signal (in blue), created by the FPGA. and the corresponding analog signal (in red). + + |
