1. GENERAL INFORMATION

Dear customer,
thank you very much for choosing our product.
In the following, we will introduce you to what to observe while starting up
and using this product.
Should you encounter any unexpected problems during use, please do not
hesitate to contact us.

The PSG9080 function/arbitrary waveform generator can output basic
waveforms (sine wave, square wave, triangle wave, pulse wave and custom
waveforms) from one of the channels individually or both channels simul­taneously. At start-up, the two channels are configured to output a sine
waveform with a frequency of 10kHz and an amplitude of 5Vpp by default.
Users can configure the unit to output dierent basic waveforms.

The PSG9080 has these functions: Amplitude, frequency, phase modulati­on, amplitude shi keying, frequency shi keying, phase-shi keying, pulse
width modulation and burst function. It can measure the frequency, period
and length of input signals and count the periods. It also has a sampling
mode and a voltage control mode.

The button layout and 3.5" colour LCD are intuitive and easy to use. You
can save several settings in groups so you can load them quickly. The
menu can be set in German, English and French.

7. MODULATIONSMODUS

The PSG9080 can output modulated waveforms in single or dual channels. Modulation is the
process of processing the information from the signal source and adding it to the carrier to
make it suitable for channel transmission. It is the technology that changes the carrier with
the signal. The carrier wave can be a sine wave, square wave, pulse wave, arbitrary wave
(except DC signal wave). The modulated wave can be from an internal modulation source or

an external modulation source. Modulation types supported by PSG9080 include AM, FM, PM,

ASK, PSK, FSK, pulse and burst.

Select the modulation mode:
Press MOD and then → Type now you can select the desired modulation mode with the menu
buttons or the rotary knob.

Select carrier waveforms:
Press Sharp and use the rotary knob to select the desired carrier waveform. The dierent set­tings of several parameters of the carrier waveforms (such as frequency, amplitude, oset,
etc.) aect the output of the modulated waveform. For dierent carrier waveforms, the ad­justable range of each carrier parameter is also dierent (in relation to the model of instru­ment you are using and the selected carrier waveform, see "Specifications" for details).
For the setting method of the carrier parameters, please refer to the corresponding introduc­tion in the section "Basic Output Waveform".

Selecting the source:

The PSG9080 can accept modulation waveforms from internal or external modulation
sources.
Press Source to select "Internal" or "External" modulation source.

Internal source:
Aer selecting the internal modulation source, press the Sharp menu button to select sine
wave, square wave, triangle wave, ascending exponential, descending exponential or any
wave as the modulation source. The default is sine wave.

External source:
When the external modulation source is selected, the signal generator accepts the external
modulation signal input via the MOD connector on the front panel.
The frequency range of the external signal is 0~20kHz, and the amplitude range is -5V~+5V.

Setting the carrier frequency:

Aer using the modulation source "Internal", press the menu key Carr.F to set the carrier fre-

quency. Use the numeric keyboard or the direction keys and the rotary knob to enter the desi­red frequency value.
The frequency range is 0.001 Hz to 1 MHz and the default is 500 Hz.

Setting the modulation wave frequency:
Aer using the "internal" modulation source, press the menu key Mod.F to set the frequency
of the modulated wave. Use the numeric keyboard or the direction keys and the rotary knob
to enter the desired frequency value.
The modulation frequency range is from 0.001 Hz to 1 MHz and the default is 500 Hz.

AM

Amplitude modulation is a modulation method in which the amplitude of the carrier wave

changes according to the desired transmission signal, but the frequency remains unchanged.

Setting the modulation depth:
The modulation depth indicates the degree of amplitude change, expressed as a percentage.
The range of the amplitude modulation depth can be set from 0% to 200%. Press the menu
button Depth to set the amplitude modulation degree.

FM

Frequency modulation is a modulation method that changes the carrier frequency according
to the modulation signal. The magnitude of the frequency change of the modulated wave is
determined by the magnitude of the modulation signal, and the period of the change is deter­mined by the frequency of the modulation signal.

Set the frequency deviation:
Frequency deviation refers to the deviation of the frequency of the modulation waveform re­lative to the carrier frequency. Press the menu key FM.Dev to set the FM frequency deviation.

PM

Phase modulation is a modulation method in which the deviation of the carrier phase from its
reference phase changes proportionally to the instantaneous value of the modulation signal.

Adjust the phase deviation of the modulation wave:
Phase deviation refers to the change in phase of the modulated waveform relative to the car­rier phase. Press the menu key PM.Dev to adjust the phase deviation of the phase modulati­on.
Use the numeric keyboard or the direction keys and the rotary knob to enter the desired devi­ation value.
The adjustment range of the phase deviation is 0°to 359.9°, and the default value is 180°.

ASK

The modulation method that uses the digital baseband signal to control the amplitude varia­tion of the carrier wave is called Amplitude Shi Keying (ASK), also known as digital amplitu­de modulation.

Setting the polarity:
Press the Polar menu button to select the amplitude of the modulated wave controlled by
"positive polarity" or "negative polarity".

Setting the ASK amplitude:
Press the Ampl. menu button to set the ASK amplitude.
Use the numeric keyboard or the direction keys and the rotary knob to enter the desired
amplitude value.
The ASK amplitude range is 0%-200%, the default is 80%.

FSK

The modulation method used to control the change in carrier frequency is called frequency
shi keying (FSK).

Set the polarity:
Press the Polar menu button to select the amplitude of the modulated wave controlled by
"Positive Polarity" or "Negative Polarity".

Set the hop frequency:
Press the menu button Hop.F to set the hop frequency.
Use the numeric keyboard or the direction keys and the rotary knob to enter the desired fre­quency value.

PSK

Phase-shi keying (PSK): With phase-shi keying, the phase of the output signal is shied by
the set phase, depending on the logic level of the source signal.

Setting the polarity:
Press the Polar menu key to select the amplitude of the modulated wave controlled by
"positive polarity" or "negative polarity".
If the polarity is set to "positive polarity", a high level at the source signal shis the output sig­nal by the set phase. If the polarity is "negative", the phase of the output signal is shied at a
low level.

Setting the phase:
Press the Phase menu button to set the PSK phase.
Use the numeric keyboard or direction keys and the rotary knob to enter the desired fre­quency value.
The PSK phase range is 0° to 359.9°.

PWM

Digital adjustment of the pulse width and pulse period time of the pulse wave can be achie­ved, which is more accurate than setting the duty cycle. The pulse modulated waveform can
only be a square wave. This method varies the ratio of the on-time to the specified period du­ration.

Set the wave inversion:
When you press the W.Inv menu button, you can select Normal and Inv. to control the out­put.

Set the pulse width:
Press the menu key Width to set the pulse width.
Use the numeric keypad or the direction keys and the rotary knob to enter the desired value
(the unit can be us, ms, s).

The pulse width range is 0.001us to 4s, and the default is 0.100us.

Set the pulse period:
Press the Period menu button to set the pulse duration.
Use the numeric keypad or the direction keys and the rotary knob to enter the desired fre­quency value.
The period length range is from 0.001us to 40s, and the default is 10.00us.

Burst-Function

With the burst function, individual signal pulses can be sent.
The signal generator can be set to output 1-10000000 burst signals. Trigger modes include an
internal trigger, external trigger (rising edge) and manual trigger. When using it, note that the
period of the burst signal should be smaller than the period of the trigger signal.
