The 1510A Precision Signal Source generator available from MTI Instruments is a compact and portable device and includes dual-channel Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) that creates high precision signals over a wide frequency and amplitude range.
The 1510A signal generator includes both charge and voltage signals to simulate a wide range of sensors and transducers. It also includes functions like adjustable frequency, multiple wave shapes, adjustable frequency, sweep function, amplitude and phase, and 40 memory locations. These features make the 1510A suitable for test and calibration.
In addition, the 1510A signal generator features a new low-voltage bridge mode that produces 5-100,000µV, with closed-loop control, enabling precise calibration of strain gage circuits and similar sensors.
