Signal Generator Features
This section provides a list of standard signal generator features.
Standard Features:
• CW output from 250 kHz to 1, 2, 3, 4 or 6 GHz; the high-end frequency is dependent on the
frequency option you purchased with your signal generator
• list and step sweep of frequency and amplitude, with multiple trigger sources
• external diode detector leveling
• user flatness correction
• automatic leveling control (ALC) on and off modes; power calibration in ALC-off mode is
available, even without power search
• 10 MHz reference oscillator with external output
• GPIB, RS-232, and 10BASE-T LAN interfaces
• closed-loop AM
• dc-synthesized FM to 10 MHz rates; deviation depends on the carrier frequency
•phase modulation
•pulse modulation
• a dual function generator that includes the following features:
—50
Ω low frequency output, 0 to 3 V
p
— selectable waveforms: sine, square, positive ramp, negative ramp, triangle, gaussian
noise, uniform noise, swept-sine, and dual-sine
— variable frequency modulation rates
— variable triggering in list and step sweep modes: auto, external, single, or remote
• a pulse generator that includes the following features:
— external pulse
— internal square wave
— selectable internal pulse modes: free-run, triggered (with delay), doublet, and gated;
triggered (with delay), doublet, and gated require an external trigger source
