Hello,
the pcgu1000 has two outputs. Is it possible to generate two different signals, which are synchronized, as the same time.
Thank you for your help
regards
Christian
The two output connectors are parallel coupled. So you get same waveform from both of them. There is also a separate TTL-level synchronisation output.
You’ll get a synchronized square wave from the synchronisation output.
Maybe you can describe your intended application in a little more detail? If the two signals are sine waves and if they are sufficiently far apart in frequency, one option would be to have the PCGU generate their sum (easily done, simply generate the two single waveforms in e.g. Excel, add them up and load the resulting list of values into the PCGU software.
After that, you can split the PCGU’s output signals into two coherent signals by using a low-pass filter and a high-pass filter, with cutoff frequencies somewhere in the middle between the two frequencies. E.g. attach the low-pass to output 1 and the high-pass to output 2.
If what you are looking for are two waves of same frequency but different waveform, that could be done in a similar fashion (e.g. generate a triangle wave for signal 1, and us a filter+amplifier to reduce it to a sine wave for signal 2).
In case you think the necessary electronics (designing the filters) is beyond your capabilities I can help further. I have a PCGU1000 myself so I can try out any possible solution.
