Performance Verification

Amplitude, Offset Accuracy and Rise Time Tests (Direct DA Out), (except option 02)

These procedures check the accuracy of the AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform

Generator direct waveform outputs; amplitude and offset.

DC Offset

Equipment

A 504W BNC4coaxial cable, a 504W4precision terminator, an SMA

required

￿male￿5BNC ￿female￿4adapter, BNC ￿female￿5to5dual banana adapter,

 

and a digital multimeter ￿DMM￿.

 

 

Prerequisites

The AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform Generator must meet the

 

prerequisites listed on page￿4-8.

 

 

Do the following steps to install the test hookup and set the test equipment controls:

1.Use a 50 W BNC coaxial cable, an SMA(Ma)-BNC(Fe) adapter, a 50 W precision terminator, and a BNC-to-dual banana adapter to connect the AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform Generator CH1 output to the DMM input connector (see Figure 4±10).
