It produces a linear ramp signal adjustable up to 10 V amplitude, positive or negative, with a duration from 10 μs to 10 s (equivalent to 1 μs/Div to 1 s/Div | |||
on a typical oscilloscope's X scale). Additionally, the RG501 provides a 3 V (TTL compatible) gate signal (high while ramp running). | |||
{{ | The ramp can be triggered from an external input, an internal trigger signal (via the backplane), the line frequency, or can be free-running (Auto Trig mode). | ||
A typical application of the RG501 is to sweep a voltage-controlled function generator's frequency, e.g. when used with with the [[FG501]]. | |||
