Checking the t
riggered
outputs
Required equipment Prerequisites
Oscilloscope
Function Generator (AFG3021C or
equivalent)
One TCA-SMA adapter
Two 50 Ω SMA cables
One SMA female to BNC male adapter
None
1. Set the oscilloscope as follows:
a. Vertical scale: 200 mV/div (CH 1)
b. Horizontal scale: 20 ns/div
c. Trigger source: CH 1
d. Trigger level: 100 mV
2. Press the AWG front panel All Outputs Off button (or click All Outputs Off
on the Home screen) to disable the outputs (front panel light on).
3. Connect a BNC to SMA adapter to the output of the function generator.
4. Connect an SMA cable between the output of the function generator and the
Trigger A input on the rear panel of the AWG.
5. Connect CH 1 (+) of the AWG to channel 1 of the test oscilloscope using a
50 Ω SMA cable and a TCA-SMA adapter.
7. Click the Home tabonthedisplay.
