Function Generator

This laboratory function generator meets all the requirements of our electronics training resources.

2MHz Function Generators

• 0.002Hz to 2MHz frequency range
• High waveform quality at all frequencies & levels
• 1000:1 frequency change on each range
• Precision internal lin/log sweep
• Internal/external AM up to 100%
• Digital display of frequency
• Digital display of amplitude & offset

Wide sweep range
Each range can be swept by at least 1000:1 either manually or via the sweep control input.

Frequency
Frequency Range 0.002Hz to 2MHz in 7 overlapping decade ranges with fine adjustment by a vernier. Vernier Range: 1000:1 on each range. Vernier Accuracy: Typically +/-5% of full scale for TG210; see Meter Accuracy for TG215 & TG230.

Sweep Modes Internal (TG230 only)
Sweep Range: 1000:1 within each range. Sweep Rate: Adjustable, typically 20ms to 20 secs. Sweep Mode: Linear or logarithmic.  Sweep start and stop frequencies displayed at the press of a button.

External
Input Impedance: 10kΩ
Input Sensitivity: 0 to 3V for 1000:1 sweep Max. Input Voltage: +/-10V Sweep Linearity: Better than 1% Max. Slew Rate: 0.1V/μs

Meter Accuracy
Frequency: +/- 1 digit on 2k to 2M ranges; better than 1% of full scale on 2 to 200 ranges.
Amplitude: Typically 5% of full scale DC Offset: Typically 2%. Resolution: 0.05% maximum on all ranges (1 in 2000). Update Rate: Varies with range; at least 2 updates per second.

Operating Modes
Specifications apply for the top decade of each frequency range and output 10V peak-to-peak into 50Ω termination. Sine Distortion: Less than 0.5% on 200, 2k and 20k ranges; less than 1% on 2, 20 and 200k ranges; all harmonics >25dB below fundamental on 2M range. Amplitude Flatness: +/-0.2dB to 200kHz; +/-1dB to 2MHz. Triangle Linearity: Better than 99% to 200kHz Rise and Fall Times: <100ns. Mark - Space Ratio: 1:1 +/- 1% to 100kHz. DC Range: +/-10V from 50Ω. Symmetry Range: Variable typically between 1:9 to 9:1 (on top decade of each range), frequency divided by 10.

TTL Fixed 0 to +5V output capable of driving CMOS and 2 standard TTL loads.

Sweep Out
6V ramp from 600Ω.
