Moku Waveform Generator and Frequency Modulation
Moku's Waveform Generator instrument is a flexible function generator capable of six different forms of modulation:
- Amplitude Modulation (AM)
- Frequency Modulation (FM)
- Phase Modulation (PM)
- Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM)
- Burst
- Sweep
Here we demonstrate frequency modulation on Moku:Lab. The Waveform Generator is set up with a 10 MHz carrier on Channel 1; the modulation source is an internally generated sinusoidal signal. The FM deviation (modulation depth) can be configured in addition to the modulation frequency.
We first switch the modulation source to be Output 2. Changing the waveform on Channel 2 from sine to square, we see the change reflected in the modulation of Channel 1.
The modulation source can also be set to either of Moku:Lab's two inputs; thus enabling a truly flexible frequency modulated (FM) signal generator.
