How to Use

  • Click the Square, Sawtooth, or Triangle preset buttons to load standard waveforms
  • Adjust individual harmonic amplitude sliders to build a custom waveform
  • Observe the time-domain output and the frequency spectrum simultaneously

What to Observe

  • Square wave: only odd harmonics (1st, 3rd, 5th...) with amplitudes 1/n
  • Sawtooth wave: all harmonics present with amplitudes 1/n
  • Triangle wave: only odd harmonics with amplitudes 1/n² — converges faster
  • Adding more harmonics sharpens corners and improves waveform accuracy
