General Characteristics
External 1 input | This BNC input connector accepts a ±1 Vpeak signal for |
| AM, FM, pulse, burst, and phase modulation. For all |
| these modulations, ±1 Vpeak produces the indicated |
| deviation or depth. When |
| for AM, FM, or phase modulation and the peak input |
| voltage differs from 1 Vpeak by more than 3%, the hi/lo |
| annunciator light on the display. The input impedance is |
| 50 ohms and the damage levels are 5 Vrms and 10 Vpeak. |
| If you configure your signal generator with Option 1EM, |
| this input is relocated to a female BNC connector on the |
| rear panel. |
External 2 input | This BNC input connector accepts a ±1 Vpeak signal for |
| AM, FM, phase modulation, and pulse modulation. With |
| AM, FM, or phase modulation, ±1 Vpeak produces the |
| indicated deviation or depth. With pulse modulation, |
| +1 V is on and 0 V is off. When |
| selected for AM, FM, or phase modulation, and the peak |
| voltage differs from 1 Vpeak by more than 3%, the hi/lo |
| annunciator light on the display. The input impedance is |
| 50 ohms and the damage levels are 5 Vrms and 10 Vpeak. |
| If you configure your signal generator with Option 1EM, |
| this input is relocated to a female BNC connector on the |
| rear panel. |
GPIB | Allows communication with compatible devices. |
| [rear panel] |
I input | Accepts an I input either for I/Q modulation or for |
| wideband AM. Nominal input impedance 50 or 600 ohms. |
| Damage levels are 1 Vrms and 10 Vpeak. [BNC, front panel] |
I out and Q out1 | The I out and Q out connectors output the analog |
| components of I/Q modulation from the internal |
| baseband generator. The nominal output impedance of |
| these connectors are 50 Ω, |
| levels are > +3.5 V and < |
| into a 50 Ω load are as follows: |
| • (O.5 Vpeak,), corresponds to one unit length of |
| the I/Q vector. |
| • (0.7 Vpeak ), for peaks for p/4 DQPSK. |
| • (1.6 |
| These female BNC connectors are provided on signal |
| generators with Option 601 or 602. On signal generators |
| with Option 1EM, these inputs are relocated to rear |
| panel SMB connectors. |
