Burst
You can configure the function generator to output a waveform with a specified
number of cycles, called a burst. You can use burst in one of two modes: Triggered
Burst (also called N Cycle burst) or Gated Burst.
Triggered Burst Mode
Triggered burst mode consists of a specific number of waveform cycles (1 to
50,000) and is always initiated by a trigger event. You can also set the burst count
to “Infinite,” which results in a continuous waveform once the function generator
is triggered.
Three-Cycle Burst Waveform
For bursts, the trigger source can be an external signal, an internal timer, the
key, or a command received from the remote interface. The input for the
external trigger signals is the rear-panel Trig In connector. This connector accepts
TTL-compatible levels and is referenced to chassis ground (not floating ground).
When not used as an input, the Trig In connector can be configured as an output
to enable the 33210A
to trigger other instruments at the same time as its internal
trigger occurs
.
Triggered burst always begins and ends at the same point in the waveform, called
the start phase. A starting phase of 0° corresponds to the beginning of the
waveform record and 360° corresponds to the end of the waveform record.
