Overview

Sine wave generator

Discussion

Sine wave generator, with parameters for controlling frequency and start phase. The module requires setting sample rate and blocksize as input arguments. If the module is instantiated with the optional ISQUAD set to 1, the module will act as a quadrature sine oscillator, with the single output pin sending out the quadrature signal in interleaved form. In quadrature mode, the output contains two interleaved channels. The first channel represents the real portion of the oscillator (cosine) and the second channel represents the imaginary portion (sine). When using the quadrature output, a Deinterleave module can be used following the module to separate the sine and cosine outputs.

Internally, the module uses complex rotation around the unit circle to achieve the sine and cosine outputs. The complex vector [stateReal stateImag] has unity magnitude and is repeatedly multiplied by another unity magnitude complex vector [incReal incImag]. [stateReal stateImag] represents the instantaneous phase with stateReal representing the cosine output and stateImag representing the sine output. The initial values of [stateReal and stateImag] are determined by the startPhase parameter. startPhase is specified in degrees. The rotation vector [incReal incImag] determines the frequency of the oscillator: $\mathrm{incReal} + j \mathrm{incImag} = e^{\frac{j 2 \pi \mathrm{freq}}{\mathrm{sampleRate}}}$
