Tektronix, Inc. Function Generator FG501A

Description
The FG501A is a Function Generator from Tektronix. A function generator is a type of signal generator people use to generate many kinds of electrical waveforms over a range of frequencies. A function generator is a type of electronic test equipment that produces sine, triangular, square, and sawtooth shape waveforms. The user can make these waveforms single-shot, using a trigger source, or repetitive, based on use. This kind of signal generator uses integrated circuits to create waveforms. Function generators cover both RF and Microwave frequencies. Additional Features: Frequency: 0.002 Hz to 2 MHz in eight decade steps Output: Max. 30 Vp-p (into high impedance) Attenuator: 60 dB in 20 dB steps, 20 dB variable Rise time: 25 ns Signals: sine, square, triangle, ramp, pulse Voltage controlled frequency input (1000:1 ratio) Triggering Variable phase control Symmetry variable from 5—95% Internal sweep generator, 3 decades, lin/log The Tektronix FG501A is a function generator plug-in for the TM500 system. The Tektronix FG501A is a general-purpose, low frequency function generator producing low distortion sine,square,triangle ,pulse, and ramp waveforms.Frequency is selectable from .001 to 1 MHz (switched in decade steps). An external VCF input permits controlling the output frequency from external voltage source.Frequency sweep up to 1000:1 ratio may be accomplished by applying a voltage ramp to the VCF input. Output amplitudes of 30 Vp-p open circuit and 13 V into 50-ohms can be obtained.
