A function generator is a device which produces simple repetitive waveforms. Such devices contain an electronic oscillator, a circuit that is capable of creating a repetitive waveform.
What are the types of signal generator?
Types of signal generators
- Waveform or function generators.
- Arbitrary function generator.
- Arbitrary waveform generator.
- RF signal generator.
- RF vector signal generator.
What is a waveform generator used for?
A waveform generator is a classification of a signal generator used to generate electrical waveforms over a wide range of signals. Common types of waveforms outputs include sine wave, square wave, ramp or triangular wave, pulse wave, cardiac pattern wave, gaussian pulse waves, arbitrary waves.
