Amplitude (V Pk-Pk )<br />

Frequency (kHz)<br />

4. Connect ch2 to TP4, observe <strong>and</strong> record the carrier signal. What are the<br />

amplitude <strong>and</strong> frequency of the carrier<br />

Amplitude (V Pk-Pk )<br />

Frequency (kHz)<br />

5. Turn the carrier suppress knob fully clockwise ( <strong>AM</strong> setting ).<br />

6. Connect ch2 to TP8 to observe the o/p of the LM1496. Use the message signal<br />

on ch1 (TP2) as the trigger source. Make sure there is no overmodulation.<br />

Record both signals on the same graph.<br />

7. Calculate the modulation index.<br />

8.<br />

<strong>Modulation</strong> Index (m)<br />

Switch the oscilloscope to XY mode. Record the trapezoidal pattern. Find the<br />

modulation index from the trapezoidal pattern, <strong>and</strong> compare it with step 7. Is<br />

there distortion in the modulation process<br />

9. Use the trapezoidal pattern <strong>and</strong> change the modulation level to get 100%<br />

modulation.<br />

10. Remove the oscilloscope XY mode <strong>and</strong> record the resulting <strong>AM</strong> waveform.<br />
