Generate a Burst Waveform
The arbitrary/function generator can output a burst using standard waveforms such as sine, square, ramp, and pulse, or
arbitrary waveforms. The instrument allows you to use the following two types of burst modes:
Triggered Burst Mode. A specified number (burst count) of waveform cycles are output when the instrument receives a
trigger input from the internal trigger source, an external trigger source, a remote command, or the Manual Trigger button.
Gated Burst Mode. The instrument outputs a continuous waveform when an effective gate signal is applied externally,
when the Manual Trigger button is depressed, when a remote command is applied, or during 50% of the selected internal
trigger interval.
To Generate a Triggered Burst Waveform
The following example describes how to generate a double pulse using the burst mode.
1. Select Pulse as an output waveform
and then push the front-panel Burst
button.
2. Confirm that 1-Cycle, N-Cycles, or
Inf-Cycles is selected, which means
triggered burst mode is enabled.
To generate double pulse, set the burst
count (N-Cycles) to 2.
3. This is an example of double pulse.
4. This waveform is a trigger output signal.
