INTRODUCTION 

The  M O D E L  F G - 2 7 3 Sweep/Function Generator 

provides of a function generator,

 pulse

 generator, Sweep 

oscillator, and frequency counter. 

F E A T U R E S • 

1. Wide-band design : seven ranges cover full oscillation 

frequency from 0.02 Hz to 2 MHz 

2. Selectable output of sine waves, square waves, and 

triangular waves through one-touch operation. 

3.  T T L / C M O S square wave output connector facilitates 

using  T T L - l e v e l and  C M O S - l e v e l output square waves 

as the signal source for experiment of a digital circuit. 

4. The symmetry Function varies symmetry of  s a w - t o o t h 

waves and pulse waves. 

It can invert the wave polarity. 

5. Equipped with a 6-segment  L E D oscillation frequency 

display and a counter covering the range from 5 Hz to 

10 MHz. 

6. Applying voltage from 0 to +10 V to the  V C F IN 

connector implements external sweep as well as output 

frequency control. 

7. The log sweep and linear sweep function provides 

sweep frequency control up to max. 1000 : 1. Sweep 

frequency is variable from 0.5 Hz (2 seconds) to 50 

Hz  ( 2 0

m i l l i s e c o n d s ) . 

Sweep control is implemented by applying sweep signal 

to the  V C F connector from an external device. 

3.  D C voltage  ( 0 to ± 10  V ) can be overlaid upon output 

waveform. 

9. Combined use of the  - 2 0 dB and  - 4 0 dB  A T T E N U A -

T O R pushbuttons and the continuous attenuator 

provides maximum attenuation over 60 dB. 

10. A small and light-weight case with convenient 

carrying handle, which also serves as a tilting stand.
