Principles of Waveform Generation/Output
The VB8300 is a digital baseband signal generator. The VB8300 loads the waveform
data that you create to the waveform memory, converts the data into an analog signal
using a D/A converter, and outputs the resultant waveform. It can also output digital
signals without converting to analog signals.

The waveform data is transmitted (loaded)
from the internal hard disk, CF card, or
USB memory to the waveform memory in
order according to the sequence list. Then,
the data is output.
The selected waveform data is
transmitted (loaded) from the
internal hard disk, CF card, or
USB memory to the waveform
memory and then output.
Output a data sequence of multiple
waveforms
(see section 2.5)
Output the data of a single
waveform
(see section 2.5)
