Example 8: To Generate an AM Waveform
How to generate an AM Waveform with depth of 70%, the Carrier wave is a Sine Wave
with 2.5 kHz Frequency, and the modulating Wave is a Sine Wave with 150 Hz
Frequency.
The operation steps:
1. Choose the Carrier Function:
Press Sine, and choose the Sine Waveform as the Carrier Wave.
The default setting of the Source is internal.
2. Set the Frequency, Amplitude and Offset.
(1) Press Period/Freq and choose Freq which will display in reverse color.
Enter “2.5” from the keypad and choose the unit “kHz” to set the Frequency
as 2.5kHz.
(2) Press Ampl/HiLev and choose Ampl which will display in reverse color.
Enter “2” from the keypad and choose the unit “V
pp” to set the Amplitude as
2 V
pp.
(3) Press Offset/LoLev and choose Offset which will display in reverse
color. Enter “0” from the keypad and choose the unit “V
dc” to set the Offset
as 0 V
dc.
3. Set the Modulation Type AM.
Press Mod Æ Type Æ AM , Please notice that the message shown on the top
left side of the screen is “AM”.
4. Set the Modulation Depth
Press Depth , use the keypad to enter “70”, choose the unit “%”, setting the
Modulation Depth as 70%.
5. Set the AM Frequency
Press Freq , use the keypad to enter “150”, choose the unit “Hz”, setting the AM
Frequency as 150Hz.
6. Choose the Modulating Waveform.
Press Shape Æ Sine , to choose Sine Waveform as the Modulating
Waveform.
Please note that the State Message on the top left side of the screen shows “Sine”.
