Page 2: Operation
Introducti on Introduction The PASCO Function Generator outputs waveforms that include DC (direct current) as well as sine, square, triangle, positive ramp, and negative ramp with a frequency range of 0.001 Hz (hertz) to 100 kHz (kilohertz). The sine waveworm retains its form up to a frequency of 150 kHz, but the other waveforms will show some distortion above 100 kHz. -

- Page 8 Some Suggested Uses In addition to the usual uses of a function generator such as providing sine wave sig- nals for electronics laboratories, the PI-8127 Function Generator is particular suited for experiment in waves and acoustics. Drive a speaker - or several speakers - with the Function Generator. Accurately set the frequency to any level in the acoustic range or beyond.
