step time simulation

Hi all,

I'm stuck on a simple issue but can't get out of it: I would like to 
generate severals waveform signals for my future testbench but the 
frequency of my signals are not correct.

Below is the code I want to simulate:
1
library ieee;
2
use ieee.std_logic_1164 .all;
3
use ieee.std_logic_arith.all;
4
use ieee.std_logic_unsigned.all;
5
use ieee.math_real.all;
6

7
entity triangle_generator is
8

9
 generic(AMP: real;
10
  OFFSET: real;
11
  FREQ: real;
12
  PHASE :real);
13
 
14
 port(wave1: out real);
15
       
16
end triangle_generator;
17

18
architecture archi of triangle_generator is
19

20
signal tmp1 : real := 0.0;
21

22

23
begin
24

25
 P1:process
26
 
27
 constant delta   : real := 1000.0e-12;
28
 constant fin  : time := 1000 ps;
29
 
30
 variable angle   : real := 0.0;
31
 variable t    : real := 0.0;
32
 variable PHASE_RAD : real := 0.0;
33
 
34
 begin
35
 
36
   PHASE_RAD := (math_2_pi * PHASE)/360.0;
37

38
  loop
39
   angle   := math_2_pi * FREQ * t;
40
   t := t + delta;
41
   
42
   tmp1 <= OFFSET+(AMP/2.0)*(2.0/math_pi)*arcsin(sin(angle));
43

44
   wait for fin;
45
  
46
  end loop;
47
  
48
  wait;
49
  
50
 end process P1;
51
 
52
 wave1 <= tmp1;
53
 
54
end archi;

When I simule this code with FREQ=100 000 000 Hz I get the waveform in 
attachment, not really what I wanted. So I was thinking, if I write 
delta = 1000.0e-15 maybe it will be right, but absolutly not. When I 
change the value of delta, the frequency of the waveform is wrong.

So can you help me to get through this please?
