Key Features 8550

Direct replacement to HP 8116A.
Four instruments in one: Function Generator, Linear Sweep Generator, Logarithmic Sweep Generator, and Phase Locked Generator (PLL)
Auto calibration to typically 1% accuracy on all functions, 0.1% continuous frequency accuracy. Built-in self diagnostics
Six popular output wave forms including Sine, Triangle, Symmetrical Square, Positive and Negative Square waves, and DC
Control inputs for FM, VCO, and AM modulation

High-resolution, high-accuracy digital settings. Parameters are set, either from the front panel or through the GPIB interface
Accurate sweep operation is digitally controlled with the provided X ramp (horizontal drive), and Z intensifier (marker) outputs
30 storable, non-volatile, front panel set-ups
Standard GPIB interface, complies with IEEE-488.2 specifications

Model 8550 is an extremely high performance programmable Function Generator. It provides a variety of signal waveforms to be used as test stimuli for a diversity of electronic devices. For improved immunity to RFI and EMI noise, the instrument is housed in an all-round metal case. The Model 8550 offers many features and functions. such as enhanced accuracy, eight different linear and logarithmic sweep modes, automatic phase lock loop, counted burst, and internal trigger generator. Besides its normal-continuous mode, Model 8550 offers a variety of interrupted and controlled modes. Output waveforms may be gated, triggered, or may generate a burst of pre-selected number of cycles. The generator also provides a number of externally controlled modes, including VCO, FM, AM, and PLL.
