SIGNAL GENERATORS W h i le s i gna l ge ne ra t ors traditionally produce sine waves with accurate frequencies and amplitudes, modern function generators provide capabilities such as pulses, square, triangle, and sawtooth waves. Added features include programmability, modulation, sweeping, gating, bursts, and a variety of triggering methods. Some generators provide specialty waves, such as simulated earthquake or ECG (electrocardiogram) signals. Arbitrary waveform generators (AWG) allow the creation of accurate and sophisticated stimulus signals that reflect real-world applications. For example, an automotive engineer can use an AWG to accurately simulate a fuel injector current signal in order to test some diagnostic electronics. Metrix Electronics Ltd Tel: +44 (0)845 034 3234 Email: [email protected] www.bkprecision.com/SignalGenerators Modern circuits and systems can require a variety of signals for characterization and testing. B&K Precision offers 28 models of signal generators to meet these needs -- from sophisticated R&D lab work to price-conscious school budgets. ■ 2 MHz – 120 MHz ■ Analog and digital function generators ■ True arbitrary waveform generators There are two common architectures for signal generators today: DDS (direct digital synthesis) and analog. DDS generators provide flexibility, digital precision, programmability, and sophisticated performance in small packages. Capable of generating sine and square waves up to 50 MHz and 14 bit arbitrary waveforms of up to 4 million points at up to 125 million samples per second, B&K Precision's 407x series of AWGs lead the field in price, flexibility, and performance. Additionally, this AWG family also provides full function generator capabilities. While DDS generators are at the forefront of generator technology and features, analog generators are the time-tested workhorses of modern technology, troubleshooting/maintenance, and education. They provide excellent value with familiar controls and reliable operation, pleasing users and business managers alike.

Th e mo de l 40 1 0A is an entry level 2 MHz analog generator– perfect for school labs. ■ TTL/CMOS output ■ Adjustable DC offset ■ Sine/square/triangle/ramp/pulse outputs Some models have digital counters for accurate frequency setting and measuring and some are capable of sweeping in frequency. Maximum frequency output ranges from 2 MHz to 20 MHz. Typical uses for these generators are: ■ Signal injection into electrical circuits for characterization and troubleshooting ■ Experimental setups in college science course laboratories ■ Test signals for equipment used in scientific, engineering, and medical research Note: While only the 4040A offers FM modulation, all units except the 4001A have a VCG (voltage controlled generator) input that can simulate FM modulation when driven by a modulating signal. In addition, providing a ramp signal to this input can effectively sweep the generator's output frequency. On generators with sweep, the VCG jack provides a DC signal proportional to the instantaneous frequency, which can be useful for driving XY plotters or scope displays.
