Model T340

4-channel compact function generator

Overview

Features:
  • Four independently programmable or synchronized waveform outputs: sine, triangle, sawtooth, square/pulse/PWM
  • Channels may be synchronized to produce coordinated polyphase or time-aligned PWM signals at same or ratioed frequencies
  • 0 to 2 MHz outputs with 0.004 Hz resolution
  • Up to 20.48 volts peak to peak output, programmable 10:1 attenuation and DC offset
  • Simple programming procedures for basic sinewave generation
  • Programmable offset allows wave+offset or direct DC DAC functionality
  • Programmable channel phase allows generation of quadrature or polyphase waveforms
  • Programmable digital pulse/PWM outputs can simulate transducers or quadrature encoders
  • Test output and built-in self-test (BIST) are included
  • Includes channel test connector, allowing in-system check of channel performance without removing field wiring
  • External universal power supply or 12-volt DC power
  • RS-232 serial interface standard; Ethernet optional
Description:

The T340 is a compact standalone waveform generator. It incorporates four internal DDS waveform synthesizers that may be used independently or synchronously to produce polyphase signals. Waveforms include sine, triangle, sawtooth, and precision square/PWM outputs.

Test relays allow any output to be diverted to a test connector for in-system calibration verification. Built-In-Self-Test is provided.

The T34x family of generators includes the T344 and T346, which provide the features of the T340 and add arbitrary waveform capability, AM/FM/PM modulations, summing, global synchronizations, and extend frequency outputs to as much as 32 MHz.
