    waveform memorizer. DDS uses phase adding technique to control the address of waveform memorizer. Add a phase increment on the present result of phase accumulator in each sampling clock period so as to change the output frequency value by change phase increment. According to the address from the phase accumulator, take the quantized data out from the wave memorizer and then convert it into analog voltage via digit-analog converter and operation amplifier.
  • Page 15 Frequency modulation(FM) Exterior measurement Parameter calibration 3.1 General operation rule 3.1.1 Data input: If an item is selected, the parameter value can be entered by ten numeric keys writing from left to right. If there are more than one decimal point entered in a parameter, only the first one is valid.
  • Page 16 accurate way. The Step entering method can only be used in the frequency of channel A or the amplitude of channel A. 3.1.3 Knob adjusting : In practice, signal needs to be adjusted sequentially sometimes, so number adjusting knob will be used. There is a blink position of cursor in the numeric display.

The user should know fairly well. 3.2.3 Setting of amplitude of channel A : Press the key of 【 Ampl 】 and the current amplitude will be displayed. Then use the numeric keys or the knob to enter the amplitude value.
  • Page 18 continually. But if the amplitude of signal is small in the attenuation of 0dB, the distortion of waveform will be larger and the signal-to-noise ratio is worse. 3.2.6 Output load: The setting value of amplitude is calibrated when the output end is open.
  • Page 19 offset value. For the Vpp of amplitude less than 0.2V, the real output offset is one percent of the set offset value. It will be more convenient using the numeric keys than the knob when adjusting DC offset for output signal. In general case, whether DC offset is positive or negative, DC level will rise if turning right and fall if turning left.

Linking the signals of two channels to the oscilloscope, setting the harmonic times and phase difference of the signals of two channels, various stable Lissajous figures can be obtained.

The larger the amplitude of the exterior modulation signal, the larger the frequency deviation modulation or depth of amplitude modulation. When using exterior modulation, the frequency deviation modulation should be set to be 0 and the interior modulation signal should be closed.
