Test Equipment
The performance test procedures require external, traceable signal sources to
check instrument performance. If your test equipment does not meet the
minimum requirements listed in Table 4–1, your test results will be invalid.

The high frequency leveled sine wave generator is only required to verify the TDS 380, not the TDS 340A or TDS 360. If
you use the example equipment, refer to
Sine Wave Generator Leveling Procedure on page 4–20 for information on
obtaining a leveled output from an unleveled sine wave generator
.
If available, you can use a Tektronix SG504 Leveled
Sine Wave Generator in place of the example equipment.
