Analog Control Blocks > Signal Generator function block

Signal Generator function block execution

The Signal Generator function block generates the sine wave, square wave, and random signal components that you specify. The block also applies the specified bias value and generates the output value. The output status is set to Good: Non-cascade.

You specify the sine wave period parameter (SIN_PERIOD) and the sine wave amplitude parameter (SIN_AMP) to generate the sine wave component.

You specify the square wave period parameter (SQUARE_PERIOD) and the square wave amplitude parameter (SQUARE_AMP) to generate the square wave component.

You specify the random signal amplitude parameter (RAND_AMP) and the first-order filter (RAND_FTIME) to generate the random signal component.

You specify the bias parameter (BIAS) to be applied to the signal.

The following figure shows an example of the timed response of the Signal Generator function block:
