To Enable Burst Mode
Press Burst at the front panel to enable Burst function (the backlight of the key
goes on), and Mod or Sweep function will be automatically disabled (if currently
enabled). The generator will output burst waveform from the corresponding
channel (if currently turned on) according to the current configuration. You can
also reset the burst function menu. Please refer to the introduction in the following
text for details.
Burst Type
DG4000 could output three types of bursts, including N Cycle, Infinite and
Gated. The default is N Cycle.
Table 7-1 Relations among burst type, trigger source and carrier waveform
Burst Type Trigger Source Carrier Waveform
N Cycle Int/Ext/Manual Sine/Square/Ramp/Pulse/Arbitrary waveform
(except DC)
Infinite Ext/Manual Sine/Square/Ramp/Pulse/Arbitrary waveform
(except DC)
Gated Ext Sine/Square/Ramp/Pulse/Noise/Arbitrary
waveform (except DC)
N Cycle Burst
In N Cycle mode, the generator will output waveform with specified number of
cycles after receiving trigger signal. Waveform functions that support N cycle burst
include Sine, Square, Ramp, Pulse and arbitrary waveform (except DC).
For N cycle burst, "Int", "Ext" or "Manual" trigger source could be used. Besides,
users can set the "Start Phase", "Burst Period" (internal trigger), "Delay",
"SlopeIn" (external trigger) and "TrigOut" (internal trigger and manual trigger).
