Description

The Triangle Generator block generates a symmetrical triangle waveform, with peak amplitude of +/−1. The figure shows how the Frequency and Phase block parameters affect the output waveform.

Characteristics

Sample TimeSpecified in the Sample Time parameter
Continuous if Sample Time = 0

To edit block parameters interactively, use the Property Inspector. From the Simulink® Toolstrip, on the Simulation tab, in the Prepare gallery, select Property Inspector.

Frequency of the triangle waveform, in hertz.

Delay of the triangle waveform, in degrees. When the phase is set to 0, the waveform starts with an amplitude of -1 and a positive slope.

Sample time of the block, in seconds. Set to 0 to implement a continuous block.
