Principles of Operation
The instrument operates in one of two different modes depending on the waveform selected.
DDS mode is used for sine, cosine, haversine, triangle, sinx/x and ramp waveforms. Clock
Synthesis mode is used for square, pulse, pulse train, arbitrary and sequence.
In both modes the waveform data is stored in RAM. As the RAM address is incremented the
values are output sequentially to a Digital-to-Analogue Converter (DAC) which reconstructs the
waveform as a series of voltages steps which are subsequently filtered before being passed to
the main output connector.
The main difference between DDS and Clock Synthesis modes is the way in which the addresses
are generated for the RAM and the length of the waveform data.
