Amplitude, Offset Accuracy and Rise Time Tests (Direct DA Out)
These procedures check the accuracy of the AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform
Generator direct waveform outputs; amplitude and offset.
Equipment
required
A 50ĂW BNCĂcoaxial cable, a 50ĂWĂprecision terminator, an
SMA(Fe)-BNC(Ma) adapter, BNC (female)ĆtoĆdual banana
adapter, and a digital multimeter (DMM).
Prerequisites The AGW610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator must meet the
prerequisites listed on page B-8.
Do the following steps to install the test hookup and set the test equipment
controls:
1. Use a 50 W BNC coaxial cable, an SMA(Fe)-BNC(Ma) adapter, a 50 W
precision terminator, and a BNC-to-dual banana adapter to connect the
AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator CH1 output to the DMM input
connector (see Figure B–10).
