Trigger Gate & Burst
Characteristics
Triggered -
Each transition at the front panel TRIG IN connector stimulates
the Model 3162B to generate one complete output waveform.
Gated -
External signal at the TRIG IN connector enables the Model 3162B
output. The last cycle of the output waveform is always completed.
Burst -
Each transition at the front panel TRIG IN connector stimulates the
Model 3162B to generate a burst of pre-selected number of cycles.
Equipment:
Pulse/function generator (8021), oscilloscope.
Trigger
1.
Configure the Model 3162B as follows:
Function:
Sine wave
Frequency: 1 MHz
Operating Mode:
Triggered
Remote Commands: :RES
:FREQ 1e6
:INIT:CONT OFF
:OUTP ON
2.
Set the external pulse/function generator frequency to 10 kHz and
connect its SYNC connector. Set the oscilloscope and verify on the
oscilloscope that the Model 3162B outputs a triggered signal. Leave the
external pulse generator connected to the Model 3162B for the next
test.
