Hi everyone,

As I'm completely new to FPGAs, could someone help me in generating PWMs using Sine PWM technique on my newly ordered DE0-Nano Development kit with Quartus II v13 (64 bit) tool.

I've done the following steps, correct me if i'm wrong.

1. Created a new block diagram/schematic file in Quartus II.

2. Added basic functional blocks like 'sine-cos' and 'compare' from mega functions. But, I couldn't find the option to enter the required frequency parameters in 'sine-cos' and 'compare' blocks (Like we normally do in MATLAB simulation)

3. Only floating point format in bits selection option is available.

Hence, I couldn't proceed further. Pls help.

Thanks in advance,

Babloo.
