The Function Generator Code


Frequency Counter 1 Hz to 9.999MHz, 1M ohm input impedance, 0.25 v rms to 50 v rms input
Square Wave Synthesizer 1Hz to 1 MHz, 3 digit PLL accuracy, 5 volts, or 12 volts digital output
Speech Synthesizer The 68HC11 uses a speech synthesizer chip (instead of a display) for verbal output
Sine Wave Generator 1Hz to 100 KHz, 0.02% distortion, 10, 1, or 0.1 volts peak-to-peak output with 3 digit PLL accuracy
EEPROM Programmer Changes to the 68HC11 EEPROM can be programmed directly from the keypad on this instrument without a terminal or computer. Minor software patches can therefore be done directly from the keypad.
Programmable Filter The 68HC11 controls an analog state variable active filter that can be set for lowpass, bandpass, or highpass (2-pole) function with the cutoff frequency controlled by the 68HC11 from 1 Hz to 100 KHz. Shifts in the analog components due to temperature are automatically compensated for by the 68HC11.
Capacitance Testor The 68HC11 controls circuitry that will measure capacitance from 1 pf to 0.1 uf with 1 pf resolution.
Inductance Testor The 68HC11 controls circuitry that will measure inductance from 1 microhenry to 0.1 Henries with 1 microhenry accuracy.
