Special Output Examples
This section gives some formulas for generating outputs that may be useful in experiments and demonstrations.
Positive Square Wave
Output alternates between zero
and a positive voltage.
The maximum voltage is twice
the
amplitude
value. The
offset
value is equal to
amplitude
.
Single Positive Ramp
Output starts at zero, increases
to a maximum value, and turns
off.
The maximum voltage is twice
the
amplitude
value. The
offset
value is equal to
amplitude
.
Heat Pulse
Output is a single pulse of a
specific voltage and duration.
The duration of the pulse is
half of the
period
value. The
voltage is twice the
amplitude
value. The
offset
value is equal
to
amplitude
.
This output formula is useful
when using the Power Ampli-
fier with a heating resistor for
adding a predetermined quan-
tity of heat to a calorimeter.
Automatic On
This calculation turns the out-
put on just after you press
to start data recording. Wave-
form, amplitude, frequency,
and other properties of the out-
put are determined in the Out-
put screen.
