Chapter 3 Features and FunctionsAmplitude Modulation (AM)Carrier Waveform Shapeœ AM carrier shape: Sine, Square, Triangle, Ramp, or Arbitrarywaveform. The default is Sine.œ You cannot use the noise function or dc volts as the carrier waveform.œ Front-Panel Operation: Press any of the front-panel function keysexcept Noise . For arbitrary waveforms, the Arb key selects thewaveform that is currently downloaded.œ Remote Interface Operation:FUNCtion:SHAPe {SINusoid|SQUare|TRIangle|RAMP|USER}You can also use the APPLy command to select the function,frequency, amplitude, and offset with a single command.Carrier Frequencyœ Carrier frequency: 100 mHz to 15 MHz (100 kHz for triangle andramp). The default is 1 kHz.œ For arbitrary waveforms, the maximum carrier frequency depends onthe number of points specified in the waveform. The five built-inarbitrary waveforms can be output at a maximum of 5 MHz.Number of Arb Points8 to 8,192 (8k)8,193 to 12,287 (12k)12,288 to 16,000Minimum Frequency100 mHz100 mHz100 mHzMaximum Frequency5 MHz2.5 MHz200 kHzœ Front-Panel Operation: Press the Freq key to select any validfrequency for the selected function (the present amplitude and offsetvoltage are used).œ Remote Interface Operation:FREQuency {|MINimum|MAXimum}72
