B. LF Attenuation Accuracy

1. Set the oscilloscope channel 1 to 1 MΩ input coupling. Set the vertical

scale on both C1 and C2 to 200 mV/div.

2. Set the function generator to Hi Z output termination and set the output

to a 100 Hz sine wave with 500 mVrms amplitude.

3. Turn on a measurement of the sdev(C1) and sdev(C2). The sdev function

measures the rms voltage of a waveform.

4. Record the mean of the sdev(C1) on the test record as “Generator Output

Voltage, mid range.”

5. Record the mean of the sdev(C2) on the test record as “Measured Output

Voltage, mid range.”

6. Calculate the accuracy by taking (Measured Output – Generator

Output)/(Generator Output). Record this value as a percentage on the
test record as “Gain Error, mid range.”

7. Verify that the accuracy is < ±2.0%.

8. Set the function generator amplitude to 5 Vrms.

9. Set the vertical scale on both C1 and C2 to 2 V/div.

10. Record the mean of the sdev(C1) on the test record as “Generator Output

Voltage, top range.”

11. Record the mean of the sdev(C2) on the test record as “Measured Output

Voltage, top range.”
