Tektronix PG506
Calibration Generator
Description
This Generator is an electronic instrument that generates repeating electronic signals.
It contains an electronic oscillator, a circuit that is capable of creating a repetitive waveform.
This unit provides three modes of squarewave output, selectable DC outputs, and a variable amplitude output with front panel digital indication of oscilloscope deflection error.
Simultaneous plus and minus low level, fast rise (1.0ns) square waves or high amplitude (60V), extremely clean square waves are available at frequencies from 10Hz through 1MHz for checking oscilloscope transient response.
Key Points
Three Square wave Output Modes
Direct Readout of Oscilloscope Deflection Error
5mA calibration current loop for current probe calibration
Amplitude Calibration Mode
Pulse Modes
High Amplitude Output
Fast Rise Outputs
Simultaneous positive and negative going polarity
