Tektronix, Inc. Function Generator FG502

Description
The FG502 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 Range 0.1 Hz to 11 MHz 0-10V Output open circuit 0-5V Output into 50ω <0.5% sine wave distortion Waveform Outputs: Sine, Square, Triangle, Ramp, Pulse The Tektronix FG502 is a function generator plug-in for the TM500 system. It generates low distortion sine, square, triangle, positive and negative pulse, and ramp waveforms from 0.1 Hz to 11 MHz. A squarewave trigger is available at the front panel. Variable DC offset is also provided. α voltage-controlled frequency (VCF) input controls the output frequency from an external voltage source. The output frequency can be swept above or below the selected frequency to maximum of 1000:1 depending on the polarity and amplitude of the VCF input and the selected output frequency. An external gate input allows the generator to operate for the duration of an externally applied gating signal. This mode provides either a single cycle output, or a train of preselected waveforms, depending on the gating signal width and the generator frequency setting.
