Using the Built-In
Standard
Waveforms
Using The Instrument 3-16
The Standard Waveform commands control the various parameters
of the active Standard Waveform. Standard waveform commands
operate in a similar fashion for each of the Standard Waveforms. To
simplify the description of this set of commands, only the standard
waveform commands for the PULSe function are described. Use the
same procedure to program parameters for the SINe, TRIangle,
RAMP, SQUare, SINC, GAUSsian, EXPonential and DC waveforms.
The number of points used to define each Standard Waveform
varies. For SINe and SQUare:
Freq # 200kHz
Freq < 200kHz
Freq > 10MHz
For RAMP, PULSE, GAUSSian and EXPonential:
Freq # 100kHz
Freq > 100kHz
For TRIangle and SINC:
Freq # 200kHz
Freq > 200kHz
The equations used for generating EXPonential, GAUSian and SINC
functions are as follows:
