System Outputs
Reference: Accepts external 10 MHz reference
signal.
Horizontal Sweep: 0 to 10 V ramp proportional to
sweep frequency between start and stop limits.
Z-Axis: Oscilloscope intensity modulation. Used
for waveform editing on an oscilloscope.
Channel Inputs
Trigger: TTL level.
AM Modulation: Used for amplitude and
suppressed carrier modulation.

Ordering Information
Model 296: 50 MHz Arbitrary Waveform Generator.
Includes 1 arb channel with 128k waveform memory,
DOS compatible 3 1/2 inch floppy disk drive.
Model 296-EM512: 50 MHz Arbitrary Waveform
Generator. Includes 1 arb channel with 512k
waveform memory, DOS compatible 3 1/2 inch floppy
disk drive.
Option 001: Additional arb channel with 128k
waveform memory.
Option 001-EM512: Additional arb channel with
512k waveform memory.
Note: Up to three additional arb channels can be
Model 296
added to the basic model for a total of four arb
channels. 128k and 512k channels may be installed
in the same chassis.
Option 004: Rack mount kit for a standard 19 inch
rack.
Option 005: Direct DSO download of waveforms
from selected digital oscilloscopes via a GPIB cable.
Option 007: High Voltage and External Summing
module. Increases the output for up to three arb
channels to 100 Vpp (into 500
Ω
). Amplitude of each
channel is independently programmed. Provides an
input for summing an external signal.
Maximum Slew: 200 V/s
Maximum Bandwidth: 1 MHz (sampling
frequency)
NOTE: Model 296 is limited to 3 arb channels when Option 007 is
installed.
Model 485: WaveForm DSP; Windows based
software for creating and editing complex
waveforms.
Model 295: 50 MHz Arbitrary Waveform Generator
(1 channel w/32k memory and Floppy Disk Drive)
Model 295-EM: 50 MHz Arbitrary Waveform
Generator (1 channel w/128k memory and Floppy
Disk Drive)
