When you’re designing and testing circuits and equipment, where do you get those input signals? You could build your own signal source for a specific application, but that isn’t necessary.

Signal generators are a crucial element in many areas of product design, development, production, and field testing. While their longstanding applications include base stations, radar, and EMC ...

Any short-circuit conditions which might possibly occur in practice can be produced in their testing room. The generators are driven by 5,500 volt motors connected with the public supply mains.

These minuscule modules provide a safe and accessible way to dive into fundamentals for arc simulation and testing circuit ...

Most gigahertz signal generators are bulky and expensive. Electronic circuits made from Josephson junctions could be mere millimeters long and integrate easily into electronic chips.

The smart phone signal generator can be built for less than $15! The hardware consists of a single stereo 3.5 mm headphone plug, some wire and then optionally three alligator clips to connect the ...
