Function Generator
Share |


A function generator is an electronic test device that is commonly used to generate electric waveforms. The waveforms generated by these generator can be either repetitive, or single-shot, which requires some kind of internal or external activating source.
It is capable of generating different types of voltage patterns at various amplitudes and frequencies. Response of a circuit to common input signals can also be tested using these generator.
Salient Features
-
Function generator system includes hookup cable and instruction manual.
-
These generators can be analog or digital.
-
Analog function generators usually generate a triangle waveform, which serves as the basis for all of its other outputs.
-
Like most signal generators, function generators may also consist of an attenuator and various means of modulating the output waveform.
-
These generators often have the ability to automatically and repetitively sweep the frequency of the output waveform between two operator-determined limits.
-
It consist of in-built frequency counters to accurately display and set output frequencies.
Applications
These widely used in many fields. Some of their application areas are:
-
Research Works
-
Audio & video equipment test
-
Frequency response testing
-
Evaluation of digital timing
-
Time domain analysis of amplifiers and comparators
-
Design & service applications
