Operation Manual V1.9
Introduction
1.1 Introduction
DDS-3005 USB Arbitrary Waveform Generator has one channel of
arbitrary waveform output, 8 Bits output, synchronized signal outputs, two
channels of Counter/Frequency Measurement inputs, 8 Bits input and external
trigger input. User can edit the waveform arbitrarily by the mouse or choose
the regular waveforms such as Sine, Square, Tri-angle, Saw-tooth, TTL, White
Noise, Gauss Noise, Trapezia, Exponent, AM and FM. The parameters, such
as amplitude, frequency and offset, are also settable. The data format of DDS3005 USB is completely compatible with that of Tektronix; it can directly read
the waveform data files produced by the Tektronix oscilloscope or Tektronix
waveform editor software and redisplay the waveform. DDS-3005 USB adopts
the DDS technology so that it has the advantages of high frequency accuracy,
high waveform resolution, high reliability, and wide software support. It can
be widely used in the various kinds of electronics labs and it offers complete
interface for second time development to be jointlessly inserted into other
auto-measuring systems.
1.2 Working Principle
1
The PC transfer the waveform data to the memorizer of the signal
generator via the USB bus, the ID counter cycles and send the period
waveform data to the DAC circuits, the DDS (Direct Digital Synthesized)
circuit produces the corresponding DAC refreshing clock. The waveform of
DAC is outputted through the Cache magnifier, Low Pass Filter, and the
Magnifier. The frequency counter can test the external frequency.
