FILTER CAPACITOR

S.Y.Btech
Function generator also known as a waveform generator produces wave forms of all types. The wave forms can be classified into two types such as single-shot or repetitive. Usually a waveform generator produces waveform that is produced by the repetitive discharging and charging of the capacitor to which is connected a constant energy source.

Users can choose other shapes of output forms based on their needs for the circuit testing. Shapes of waveform include square wave, sine wave, triangle wave and saw tooth waveforms. By altering the size of capacitor and by altering the current such waveform shapes can be generated in the function generator. There is a frequency controller option on the function generator that allows users to choose the rate at which the output signal oscillates.

In order to use a function generator, you may need to decide first on the waveform shape that is desired after powering on the function generator. The required output signals are configured in the function generator by connecting the leads of signal and ground to an oscilloscope
