2.3 PERFORMANCE

2.3.1 General

The output f r e q u e n c y of the generator is d e t e r m i n e d by its tuning mode of


operation-whether i t s f r e q u e n c y control is internal, or is determined by the use
of an external drive. With the TUNING switch in the DIAL position, the f r e q u e n c y
is d e t e r m i n e d by the dial and m u l t i p l i e r setting, o r if an e x t e r n a l voltage is ap-
plied t o the VC I N P U T , the frequency m a y be v a r i e d about the dial s e t t i n g , W i t h
the TUNING switch in the E X T , + V position, the dial is r e m o v e d f r o m the c i r c u i t ,
and the output f r e q u e n c y depends upon the amplitude of a positive voltage applied
to the V C I N P U T , In all w a v e f o r m positions, the auxiliary square wave c a n be
taken f r o m the 'L connector, The phase relationship of the v a r i o u s w a v e f o r m s
is shown in Figure 2.

2.3.2 Arnpli tudc

The A M P L I T U D E c o n t r o l s affect o n l y the main O U T P U T . The generator w i l l


provide the peak open circuit output voltage given on the push buttons with the
vernier in the maximum c l o c k w i s e d i r e c t i o n . In s e l e c t i n g output amplitude, use
the l o w e s t value that includes the a m p l i t u d e you want. For instance, if you require
1 volt, p r e s s the I. 5 volt button, and adjust the v e r n i e r for an output of 1 volt.
The vernier s c a l e gives approximate open c i r c u i t peak amplitude values.
Since the d c output level, the dc offset, and the amplitude v e r n i e r are all at the
input of the output amplifier, t h e i r settings are affected b y the a c t i o n of the
attenuator, which is at the output of the amplifier. The a t t e n u a t o r provides an
impedance of 50 o h m s a t all s e t t i n g s . If the dc l e v e l plus the peak value of the
s i g n a l e x c e e d s the pushbutton setting, the output signal w i l l b e clipped or d i s t o r t e d .
Thus the output should not e x c e e d 15 volts peak ac plus dc ori the OdB position,
1.5 volts on the -20dB position, etc.

2.3.3 Symmetry and Duration Control

Symmetry c o n t r o l on the Model 5 4 0 0 A i s not l i k e t h e s y m m e t r y control in most


other g e n e r a t o r s . Usually, the s y m m e t r y control offsets a n o r m a l l y s y m m e t r i c a l
s i g n a l by varying both portions of t h e signal simultaneously, i n c r e a s i n g t h e t i m e
of one portion and d e c r e a s i n g t h e time of the other. In the Model 5400A, when the
SYMMETRY-pos d u r a t i o n control i s in the NORM position, the w a v e f o r m s are
s y m m e t r i c a l ; w h e n the control is switched on, it controls half t h e waveform period,
w h i l e the f r e q u e n c y d i a l c o n t r o l s the o t h e r half, The duration of e a c h h a l f of the
waveform c a n be v a r i e d o v e r a I:100 range, the specific d u r a t i o n depending u p o n
the multiplier setting, F o r instance w i t h the m u l t i p l i e r s e t at XIOOK, the positive
half of a s q u a r e w a v e can be s e t to 1 0 0 nanobeconds by m e a n s of the S Y M M E T R Y -
pus d u r a t i o n control, while t h e negative half can be s e t t o 10 m i c r o s e c o n d s by
m e a n s of the f r e q u e n c y dial. Conversely, t h e negative half can be s e t to 100 nano-
seconds while the positive half c a n be s e t to 10 m i c r o s e c o n d s . The frequency can
be calculated as follows:

I
Frequency =
( p o s duration) f (neg duration)

W h e n the t r i a n g l e w a v e f o r m is used, the duration controls can be used t o g e n e r a t e


a sawtooth-the S Y M M E T R Y - p o s d u r a t i o n control f o r the positive slope, and the
f r e q u e n c y dial for t h e negative slope.

2.3.4 External Synchronization

An external synchronizing signal can be u s e d t o lock the generator signal t o a n o t h e r


frequency reference. T h e S Y N C INPUT impedance is 10 K ohms. A 2 vrms sine
wave signal applied t o the S Y N C INPUT connecto-r on the rear panel w i l l l o c k the
generator t o a source within f 5 percent of t h e dial frequency with s o m e increase
in distortion. As synchronizing voltage is increased, the locking range increases
l i n e a r l y - a IO v r m s input w i l l provide a locking range of $: 30 percent, with con-
siderable increase in distortion. If a dquare wave is used as t h e synchronizing
signal, the s i n e output w i l l be c o n s i d e r a b l y d i s t o r t e d , and the locking range w i l l
increase linearly f r o m *5 percent for a 4 volt peak t o peak s y n c input t o 20 *
percent for a 20 volt peak to peak synch input. T h e g e n e r a t o r will synchronize
on a harmonic of the dial frequency, w i t h some distortion.

2.3.5 Moduloting the Output Frequency

With the T U N I S s w i t c h i n the DIAL position, the indicated frequency can be


modulated by the application of a s i g n a l to the V C I N P U T connector. The range of
modulation extends f r o m 1/1000 of the m a x i m u m frequency obtainable on a p a r t i -
cular multiplier s e t t i n g t o the maximum frequency of the multiplier setting, A
positive voltage w i l l increase the f r e q u e n c y above the dial setting, w h i l e a negative
voltage w i l l d e c r e a s e t h e frequency below t h e d i d setting. A n applied voltage of
2 volt will change the frequency b y 1 Hz x Multiplier, or I dial division, For
example, it may be n e c e s s a r y to produce a sine w a v e , varying in f r e q u e n c y
linearly from 20 t o 40 Hz and back, at the rate of 2 Hz. Set the g e n e r a t o r fre-
quency t o 30 X1, and apply a t r i a n g l e at 2 Hz, amplitude 4 volts peak to peak. The
+
s a m e effect can be obtained by offsetting the t r i a n g l e d r i v e to 0 to 4 volts, and
setting the generator dial t o 20 X I . W i t h the g e n e r a t o r d i a l s e t at 20 X1, a 0 to t 4
volt square pulse would switch the output from 20 to 40 Hz,

2.3.6 External Frequency Control

With the TUNING s w i t c h in the E X T t V position, a positive voltage applied to the


VC I N P U T c a n b e used to c o n t r o l output frequency to a ratio of at least 1OOO:l.
T h e dial is electrically removed f r o m the c i r c u i t , A t 10 v d c level w i l l provide
the maximum output frequency normally obtainable for a given m u l t i p l i e r setting.
The r e l a t i o n s h i p between voltage and frequency is:

f = 5Evc x Multiplier

That is, with t h e m u l t i p l i e r s w i t c h i n the X 1 K position, I00 m i l l i v o l t s g i v e s 500 Hz,


1 volt 5 kHz, and 10 volts 50 kHz. Notice that with t h e multiplier in the X. 001
position, IO0 m i l l i v o l t s g i v e s 0005 Hz, well below the d i a l range. At t 10 volts
~

frequency accuracy is typically within 1 percent ( r e f e r r e d to the above formula),


but m a y be off by as much as 1 5 percent at levels below IO0 millivolts. Frequency
Linearity, however, is within 0 . 5 percent o v e r the e n t i r e IOO0:I range. Maximum
accuracy is obtained when all i n t e r n a l dc l e v e l s have been optimized. At v e r y l o w
V C l e v e l s , d i s t o r t i o n can be minimized by a d j u s t m e n t of the SYM A D J IO-turn
potentiometer on the rear panel. The VC c i r c u i t c a n take a d r i v e of up to * 2 5 volts
without d a m a g e e

A negative voltage applied to the V C I N P U T will stop oscillation, and a dc l e v e l will


a p p e a r on the output. If the negative d r i v e voltage is greater than -2 volts, t h e
output l e v e l will settle at the positive pe& of the triangle, o r at the negative peak
of the s i n e wave o r squxekwave. The ramps w i l l settle at ground, or the value of
the dc offset, If the negative drive is less than -2 volts, the dc level on the output
is not predictable.

2.3.7 External VC und Duration Controls

When the SYMMETRY-pos duration c o n t r o l is on, an e x t e r n a l V C level will control


the d u r a t i o n of t h e negative portion of t h e signal. W h e n the TUNING s w i t c h is i n
the E X T -tV position, d u r a t i o n can be calculated as follows:

1
Duration in seconds
10 x V C voltage x multiplier

The V C input affects only the operation of the tuning d i d ; it does not affect the
SYMMETRY -pos duration control.

The V C amplifiers a r e similar, both having two balanced differential stages and

- * 5 and the + V C a m p l i f i e r has a g a i n of -1, which is p r e c i s e l y maintained by the
feedback t r a n s i s t o r , Q33I. The output of the - V C a m p l i f i e r d r i v e s t h e 2 R

charge on the integrating c a p a c i t o r .

The operation of the s y m m e t r y control s w i t c h does two things: (1) it reduces the
gain of the -k V C a m p l i f i e r to -.

divider. The function of the voltage d i v i d e r is two-fold: (1) It changes the slope of

OUTPUT PROTECTION CIRCUIT

This instrument has incorporated a protection c i r c u i t , which i s connected


in series with the 50 ohm o u t p u t impedance terminal. If a voltage is
accidently applied t o the o u t p u t terminal, t h a t would cause excess current
t o flow in the o u t p u t transistors, the SCR's will t u r n on bypassing this
current. When the SCR's are turned o n , the instrument will present a short
c i r c u i t t o the load.
This c i r c u i t will be damaged i f the source load i s capable of supplyinq
more t h a n 2 amps. If i t i s likely t h a t t h i s s i t u a t i o n may develope, a 2 amp
f a s t blow fuse may be inserted i n series with the o u t p u t ,
A t low oscillator frequencies, the circuit will automatically recover when
the voltage i s removed from the o u t p u t . A t higher frequencies, i t will
be necessary t o t u r n the o u t p u t amplitude down or shut the instrument o f f
momentarily a f t e r the voltage is removed from the o u t p u t .
