Hi I am facing problem regarding Generation of tones (like Busy, Beap, Dial tone), if any help regarding this.

Altera_ForumAre you using a custom board or an evaluation board? What is the hardware architecture that you are using?

you mean dtmf generator, here is one paper from free scale

Hi thanks for replay, I am using Altera Cyclone-II device(EP2C8T144C8)

currently we are I am using Altera Cyclone-II device(EP2C8T144C8), but in future I have to fit this logic in Altera CPLD Device

OK I was also asking you which kind of digital-to-analogue converter you are using for the tone generation.

I am using 14-bit DAc (AD9736)

A simple way could be to use an altsyncram block and use it in ROM mode. Then you have to initialize it with a mif file that contains the samples of a sinuosid period. You can vary the frequency of the output tone by changing the frequency of the clock which sequentially allows the read from the ROM. Also you can work by changing the address increment to modulate the output frequency.
If you want to use the DAC full resolution you can use 14-bit wide words in your altsyncram block. Cheers OD - Altera_Forum
Hi OrchestraDirector
Certainly an Orchestra Director is the best guy to synthesize all sorts of tones. You are right, and the second method of using one clock is more practical. You can then generate frequencies with fine steps at any rate below .5Fclk using a modulo adder to address the LUT.Normally designers use a wide adder but then use few of its MSBs as LUT address.

Hi,
Yes same Logic I am using, Now I am trying to generate base band data for particular tone using below equation in matLab and Generated Base band data is taken in ROM and data is accessed with SAMPLING frequency(Fs). tone_data=sin(2*pi*row_freq*time_period)+sin(2*pi*col_freq*time_period) - Altera_Forum--- Quote Start --- Hi, Yes same Logic I am using, Now I am trying to generate base band data for particular tone using below equation in matLab and Generated Base band data is taken in ROM and data is accessed with SAMPLING frequency(Fs). tone_data=sin(2*pi*row_freq*time_period)+sin(2*pi*col_freq*time_period)
--- Quote End --- I will follow that by(for 14 bits signed): tone_data = round((2^13-1) * tone_data/max(abs(tone_data))); also make sure of phase continuity i.e. the last value of tone_data must wrap-up correctly with first data. kaz
