Hi to all.
how do you set up a voltage source to do the following.
Initially In want a sine wave at a certain frequency and amplitude and
after a predetermined time I want it to change its amplitude.
ie: 1khz at 200mv and after say 100ms change to 1khz at 300mv.
Cheers
Rob

I'm not saying this is the best way to do it:

Make two voltage sources. One runs forever and the other a certain number
of cycles. If you hook them in series, you get two different amplitude
waveforms.


OR:

Use one of the ARB voltage functions to multiply the sinewave by a pulse.
This allows you to make a sinewave that cycles back and forth and goes
smoothly between amplitudes.

Hi there. Thanks for the reply.
I have found another way.
I have used the "Modulator" found in the special functions folder.
Does exactly what I want.
Set a pulse (200mv to 300mv , 100ms delay) connected to the AM
input.Mark , Space = 1k.
Output is a sine wave at 200mv that goes to 300mv after 100ms.Basically
I'm just amplitude modulating a 1khz sine wave.
Useful tool.
Cheers
Rob
