“TO USE FUNCTION GENERATOR”

Equipment:

 Function generator
 Digital Multimeter
 Oscilloscope
 10X probes

Experiments No.1 “To generate a sinusoid using function generator”

 Generate and observe the waveform V=Asin(2pf), where A=100 mV and f=5kHz.

 Remember the A is in millivolts and not volts. Use the attenuator function.

 Capture the waveform by digital oscilloscope.

 Smooth the waveform using the average feature keeping M=4, 16 and 128.

 Acquire the data and recreate in MATLAB.


by increasing value of M we get smoother sine wave.This reduces the level of noise. Using this technique
the oscilloscope can display the latest acquisition with the noise as well as the averaged signal, so
observing the effect of the averaging. When the desired level of noise reduction is achieved we can view
the shape of the averaged signal and make measurements.

RECREATING IN MATLAB:
