Digital Signal Generator
Precision waveforms for waves, sound, and electronics labs
Give students precise, repeatable control over waves and signals with the Digital Signal Generator. This classroom-ready unit provides a continuous frequency sweep from 0.1 Hz to 100 kHz (in varying resolutions), using fast-change buttons and a fine-adjust knob—so students can dial in exact frequencies without switching ranges. Clear digital readout and intuitive controls make it easy to explore resonance, harmonics, and system response in real time.
The generator outputs sine, triangle, and square waveforms with variable amplitude up to 24 V, delivered through standard 4 mm safety sockets. Connect directly to an oscilloscope, Mechanical Wave Driver, or an 8-ohm speaker to visualize and hear how changing frequency, amplitude, and waveform shape affects physical systems.
Why Teachers Love the Digital Signal Generator
- No range switching required: Continuous 0.1 Hz–100 kHz (in varying resolutions) sweep with fast and fine adjustment lets students hunt resonance smoothly and accurately.
- Multiple waveforms, one device: Sine, square, and triangle outputs support waves, sound, and electronics labs.
- High-output versatility: Variable amplitude up to 24 V drives speakers, wave drivers, and electronic circuits with ease.
- Student-safe, classroom-ready connections: Standard 4 mm sockets simplify hookups and reduce setup errors.
