One embodiment of the present invention relates to a waveform generator that includes a first pair of capacitors, a second pair of capacitors, an op amp and control logic. The op amp has inputs and provides a differential triangular waveform at its outputs as an output signal. The control logic includes capacitor control logic, ramp control logic, reset control logic and charge control logic. The capacitor control logic connects a current pair of the first and second capacitors to the inputs of the op amp. The ramp control logic provides ramp currents to the current pair. The reset control logic resets capacitors of a next pair to selected voltage(s), such as zero. The charge control logic charges the next pair of capacitors, typically after the next pair of capacitors has been driven to the selected voltage(s).
