Performance Verification

Pulse Response Tests (Normal Out), (except option 02)

This procedure checks the pulse response characteristics of the AWG710

Arbitrary Waveform Generator output waveforms at amplitudes of 1 V.

Equipment

A 503W SMA3coaxial cable and an oscilloscope ￿TDS820￿.

required

 

 

 

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 the 50 W SMA coaxial cable to connect the AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform Generator CH1 output connector to the oscilloscope CH1 input connector (see Figure 4±14).
