Segment Arb waveforms
Segment Arb
®
waveforms are configured and controlled from the PGU or PMU tab in KPulse. The
below figure explains how to use KPulse for segment Arb output.
Due to the Segment Arb engine overhead, there is an additional 10 ns interval added to the end of
the last segment of a Segment Arb waveform. During this interval, the output voltage and trigger
output values remain the same as the final value reached in the last segment.
Start, stop, and time restrictions:
• The start level of the first segment and the stop level of the last segment must be the same. In the
following figure, Segment 1 start and Segment 7 stop are both set for 0.0 V.
• The stop level for a segment must be the same as the start level for the next segment. In the
following figure, the stop level for Segment 1 is 1.0 V, which is the same as start level for
Segment 2 (no discontinuities are allowed).
• Time values are in 10 ns increments, with a minimum of 20 ns.
Segment Arb pulse waveform previewers: KPulse provides a preview of configured Segment Arb
waveforms for each enabled channel. Each waveform previewer shows the segment levels and
timing for the waveform.
