AB  - Nowadays Field Programmable Gate Arrays(FPGAs)are used to implement several processes in different areas such militarydefense, medical devices, automation, telecommunication, and image processingetc. Some of the advantages of FPGA are parallel and hardware processing. Onthe other hand programming FPGAs by classic design methodologies requires mucheffort. Therefore, design tools like System Generator can provide facilitiesabout programming FPGAs. System Generator is a design tool from Xilinx toprogram the Xilinx FPGAs in MATLAB/Simulink graphic based editor. Also its blockset is limited with respect to Simulink, has.In this study square, and triangular waveformsare built with the basic blocks of System Generator tool. These waveformsbelong to basic sources for signal processing. Generally, they are used inpower electronics especially for producing PWM, or sinus PWM. Alsoco-simulation can be done by using System Generator. Square waveform block,which is implemented, has variable amplitude, frequency, duty cycle, and offsetvalues whereas triangular waveform has variable amplitude, frequency, and offsetvalues. Triangular waveform has an erroras 2 % due to data bus width.
