Performance Verification
AWG510 & AWG520 Service Manual
. The pulse rise time tests use the AWG500–Series Waveform Generator
control setting that have been used in the amplitude and DC offset tests. Do not
initialize the AWG500–Series Waveform Generator controls.
2. Set the AWG500–Series Waveform Generator controls and select the
waveform file:
a. Select the file: Load the PULSE.WFM as referring to the procedures on
page 4–15.
b. Set enhanced mode: Push SETUP (front–panel)Run Mode (bot-
tom)Continuous (side) to set the AWG500–Series Waveform
Generator to continuous mode.
c. Set direct DA mode: Push Vertical (bottom)
Add/Direct Out (side)Output (side)Direct (side).
3. Turn on the AWG500–Series Waveform Generator CH1 output: Push the
RUN and CH1 OUT buttons so that the LEDs above the RUN button and
CH1 output connector light.
4. Check pulse rise time: Check that the rise time of the pulse waveform
displayed on the oscilloscope is equal to or less than 700 ps.
5. Check CH1 or CH2: Repeat the step 4 for the AWG510 CH1 or the
AWG510 CH2, depending on the instrument that you are currently testing.
6. End procedure: Disconnect the oscilloscope.
