What’s In This
Chapter
This chapter contains a general description of the VXIbus Model
3151/3151A Waveform Generator and an overall functional
description of the instrument. It lists and describes various options
available for this model. It also describes the Model 3151/3151A
front panel connectors and indicators.
NOTE
The Model 3151A is fully hardware and software
compatible with the Model 3151. It may replace any 3151
module. Any features mentioned in this manual are
compatible with both models except where stated
otherwise..
Introduction
A detailed functional description is given following the general
description of the features, functions, and options available with the
Model 3151/3151A.
The Model 3151/3151A is a VXIbus, single slot C-size module.
Waveform Generator. It is a high performance waveform generator
that combines two powerful instruments in one small package; a
function generator and an arbitrary waveform generator. The
instrument provides a variety of standard waveforms to be used as
test stimuli for different electronic devices. The Model 3151/3151A is
also capable of generating arbitrary waveforms with sampling rates to
100 MHz at 12 bits of vertical resolution.
Despite its small size, the Model 3151/3151A offers many features
and functions such as VXIplug&play compatibility, phase
synchronization, counted burst, internal trigger-generator, and more.
The instrument generates high quality, high accuracy waveforms
throughout the specified frequency range, amplitude span, and
operating temperature.
The Model 3151/3151A generates standard waveforms at
frequencies ranging from 100 mHz to 50 MHz. Arbitrary waveforms
are generated with clock rates ranging from 100
µ
Hz to 100 MHz.
Output amplitude may be programmed within the range of 20 mV to
