GENERAL
The
PM 5135 function generator
is ideally suited fo
r
general-purpose
applications
like
education
and
train ing,
audio and
electronics service, production testing and
development
laboratories.
The
instrument produces
sine
,
tria ngle and square
waveforms
in
the
frequency
range
from
1
mHz to
2
M Hz
.
It covers
four
logarithmical
subranges
se
lected by pushbuttons
.
Within a
subrange the frequency
is set
by a
large
dial.
The frequency
vern ier
knob a llows freque
ncy
adjustment within
-
20
%
to +20
% of
the dial
setting.
In addition
to
the standard waveforms
the
instr
ument
provides a
TTL
output
signal.
The
output
voltage is
continuously
adjustable up to
30
Vpp;
it
can
be
attenuated
in
steps of
1
0
dB
down
to 60 dB
.
The
continuously variable adjustment cove
rs
0
to
20 dB, equ ivalent
to
3 Vpp
to
30
Vpp.
A
DC voltage
from
-
10
V
to
+
1 0
V
can
be selected separately or as
offset voltage
be added
to the output signal.
The output is short
-
circuit
proof
ensuring reliable
operating
performance.
The versatile
sweep
can
be
single
or continuou
s
,
with logarithmic
c haracteristic.
Start and
stop
frequency are set
independent
from
each
other. The sweep can
cover
up to
3V
2
decades
best
suited
for
audio sweeps
in the
20
Hz to
20 kHz
frequency
range.
The sweep
period
is
adjustable from 1 to 150 seconds.
The
sweep
input
socket
allows
frequ
ency m
odulation
by
an
external
source.
Sweeps can
be
tri
ggered
manual
by
pushbutton control, or
from
an external
trigger source.
The
ergono
m
i
c design
of
the
controls
and
sockets serves for
convenient
operat
ing
the
function
generator.
