SWEEP FUNCTION
GENERATOR
B&K Precision Corporation announces
the availability of the
Model 4017B, a 10 MHz
DDS sweep function
generator that utilizes
Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) to
generate very precise and accurate
waveforms with little distortion. At
a price of only $499, the new
Model 4017B is extremely flexible,
and has a vast number of applications
in both analog and digital electronics
in the engineering, manufacturing,
servicing, educational, and hobbyist
fields.
The B&K Precision Model 4017B
10MHz DDS sweep function generator is a versatile signal source which
combines several functions into one
unit — waveform generation,
pulse generation (through variable
symmetry), and frequency sweep.
Additionally, the instrument provides
the added convenience of a built-in
frequency counter. Utilizing DDS
technology to produce precise and
accurate waveforms, the unit permits more accurate determination
of output frequency than is
possible with a simple calibrated
dial. Coarse and fine tuning
controls permit the precision
setting of the output frequency.
The heart of the function generator is a VCG (voltage controlled
generator) that produces precision
sine, square, or triangle waves over
the 0.1 Hz to 10 MHz range. This
encompasses sub audible, audio,
ultrasonic, and RF applications. A
continuously variable DC offset allows
the output to be injected directly into
circuits at the correct bias level.
The sweep generator offers linear
or log sweep with variable sweep rate
and adjustable sweep time. Variable
symmetry of the output waveform
converts the instrument to a pulse
generator capable of generating
rectangular waves or pulses, ramp or
sawtooth waves, and slewed sine
waves.
In addition to the above features,
an external voltage may be used to
control operating frequency. This is
useful in situations where an
externally controlled frequency is
desirable. The unit comes with a user
instruction manual and B&K Precision
Corporation’s one-year warranty.
