AC flatness test: >100 kHz
For this test, use a power meter with a power head.
NOTE.
Record the results of this test in the test record for your model in
(on page 51).
To verify AC flatness at >100 kHz:
1. Connect the AFG31000 Series to the power meter with a power head as shown in the following
figure.

3. Set the frequency of the power meter to match the frequency setting of the AFG31000 Series.
4.
Verify that the power measurement is within the limits specified in the following tables (relative to
the 1 kHz reference power level).
5.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 with the AFG31000 Series set to each of the other frequencies specifi
ed in
the following tables.
6. (Two-channel models only) Repeat steps 2 through 5 for channel 2 output.
