[SOURce:]VOLTage
The
[SOURce:]VOLTage
subsystem controls the amplitude and offset
values for all output waveform shapes.
Amplitude and Offset
Considerations
Amplitude control is accomplished by the combination of an analog
multiplier and a 20 dB attenuator. The analog multiplier scales the output
of the main output DAC. It has a resolution of 11 bits where 2047
represents maximum output and 0 no output. Any specified offset voltage is
summed with the multiplier output before the 20 dB attenuator. If both the
output amplitude and offset are less than or equal to 10% of full scale
(.51175 V into a 50
Ω
load), the 20 dB attenuator will be used, and the
analog multiplier and offset DAC values will be scaled up by a factor of 10.
This results in finer low-level amplitude and offset control, as well as
reduced noise on the output. If either the output amplitude or offset values
are greater than 10% of full scale, the 20 dB attenuator will not be used.
Thus, a very small amplitude signal riding on a large offset will have
relatively poor amplitude resolution and will tend to be noisy.

sets the output amplitude when
SOURce:FUNCtion:SHAPe
is set to
DC
,
RAMP
,
SINusoid
,
SQUare
,
TRIangle
. It sets the positive full-scale output
amplitude for arbitrary waveforms (
SOURce:FUNCtion:SHAPe USER
set);
the least significant DAC code bit represents 1/2047 of this value.
Output amplitude for ramp, sine, square and triangle wave output may be
programmed in volts, peak volts, peak-to-peak volts, RMS volts, or dBM.
Output amplitude for DC must be programmed in volts; for arbitrary
waveform output, volts or peak volts.
The query form returns the amplitude in terms of the default units, specified
by the
SOURce:VOLTage:LEVel:IMMediate:AMPLitude:UNIT:VOLTage
command.
