In this course, you'll learn how to create, edit, and generate complex arbitrary waveforms for testing with a function generator.
Learn:
Lesson 1 - Introduction to Generating and Editing Complex Waveforms for Function Generators
Introduces the basics of waveform generation and editing using function generators. It covers what a function generator is, the different types of waveforms that can be generated, the basic components of waveforms, how to measure the components of waveforms using a function generator, and how to use software tools and the built-in editing features on a function generator to generate complex arbitrary waveforms. The lesson also includes a hands-on exercise in which you will use a function generator to generate a sine wave and measure its components.
Lesson 2 - Features of a Modern Function Generator
The features of a modern function generator. It covers the different types of waveforms that can be generated, the frequency and amplitude ranges, the rise and fall times, the duty cycle, the output impedance, and the triggering features. The lesson also discusses the built-in software tools that can be used to generate and edit waveforms.
Lesson 3 - Creating and Editing Waveforms
Teaches how to use software tools and the built-in editing features on a function generator to generate complex arbitrary waveforms for testing. It covers how to create waveforms from scratch, how to edit existing waveforms, and how to save and load waveforms. The lesson also includes a hands-on exercise in which you will use a function generator to create a custom waveform.
Lesson 4 - Creating a Waveform Playlist
Create a waveform playlist using a function generator. A waveform playlist is a collection of waveforms that can be played back in sequence. This can be useful for testing electronic devices or creating audio signals. The lesson covers how to create a waveform playlist, how to add waveforms to a playlist, and how to play back a playlist. The lesson also includes a hands-on exercise in which you will create a waveform playlist and play it back on a function generator.
Lesson 5 - Generating and Editing Complex Waveforms for Function Generators
Apply waveforms to real-world applications. This includes testing electronic devices, creating audio signals, and generating waveforms for use in digital signal processing (DSP) applications. The lesson also covers how to use function generators to generate waveforms that are not available in the built-in library.
