1/4 Clock Output ĂLevelĂTests
These procedures check the AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator clock
output signal.
Equipment
required
A 50ĂWBNC coaxial cable and an oscilloscope.
Prerequisites The AWG610Arbitrary Waveform Generator must meet the
prerequisites listedon page B-8.
Do the following steps to install the test hookup and set the test equipment
controls:
1. Use the 50 W BNC coaxial cable to connect the AWG610 Arbitrary
Waveform Generator 1/4CLOCK OUT output to the oscilloscope input
connector (see Figure B–29).
