Single-Ended Output; Sync Out - HP 202A Operating And Service Manual

2) Set the
RANGE
and FREQUENCY controls for the
desired frequency. The frequency dial scale must
be multiplied by the multiplying factor indicated by
the RANGE switch setting to obtain the oscillator
frequency. Example: 4 (on dial scale) x . l (multi-
plying factor indicated by RANGE switch setting)
=
. 4 cycles/sec.
3) Set the FUNCTION switch for the desired output
waveform.
4) Connect the equipment under test to the OUTPUT
terminals.
5) Adjust the AMPLITUDE Control for the desired
output voltage. Because the frequency response
is rated k0.2 db, the output amplitude may be mea-
sured
at
any convenient frequency and the output
level will be correct (within these limits) for any
other frequency.
must be connected to one of the OUTPUT terminals,
and the strapped pair will then be the ground side of
the output.
2-6 BALANCED OUTPUT
Connect the two OUTPUT binding posts
to
the equip-
ment being supplied. The "G" binding post may
then be connected to the chassis of the equipment
being driven. Under these conditions the internal
impedance of the Model 202A from either OUTPUT
terminal to ground is 7900 ohms in series with a 1 pf
capacitor (C29). A maximum dc voltage of 400 volts
may be applied between either OUTPUT terminal
and the "G" terminal without damaging the 1 pf
capacitor (C29). The 40 ohms internal impedance
(resistive) will shunt the impedance existing between
the two signal inputs of the system being driven.
Under circumstances where the connection places
the Model 202A in series with a path carrying cur-
rent, distortion of the Model 202A output will occur
if
greater than 10 ma peak current is caused to flow
through the Model 202A output system.
