Introduction

AWG2021 Service Manual
This subsection describes the conditions required for the AWG2021 to operate to
specified characteristics.
The electrical characteristics are valid under the following conditions:
1. The instrument must have been calibrated at an ambient temperature from
+20_ C to +30_ C.
2. Allow twenty minutes warm-up time for operation to specified accuracy.
3. The instrument operates at an ambient temperature from +10_ C to +40_ C,
unless otherwise noted.
Any conditions that are unique to a particular characteristic are expressly stated
as part of that characteristic.
The electrical and environmental performance limits, together with the related
validation procedure, comprise a complete statement of the electrical and
environmental performance of a calibrated instrument.
Electrical characteristic limits in the Description column are verified by
completing the test listed in the Performance Test column.
The performance characteristics on the AWG2021 can be divided into three
categories:
H Nominal Traits. General characteristics are described not by equipment
performance and limits but by such things as memory capacity.
H Warranted Characteristics. Warranted characteristics are described in terms
of quantifiable performance limits which are guaranteed.
H Typical Characteristics. Typical characteristics are described in terms of
typical or average performance for the AWG2021. The characteristics
described herein are not absolutely guaranteed.
