Linear pulse sweep
In a linear pulse sweep, pulse levels increase or decrease in fixed steps. Each pulse top is equally
spaced between the beginning of the pulse sweep and the end of the pulse sweep.
When a linear pulse sweep is initiated, the output goes from the bias level to the first specified pulse
level, and then back to the bias level for a specified delay and off time. The next pulse goes from the
bias level to a pulse level that is a fixed step value higher or lower than the previous pulse. This
pattern continues until the end of the pulse sweep.
If you set up the linear pulse sweep by specifying the number of pulses to output and the start and
stop values of the first and last pulse, the instrument automatically sets the step size.
