Appendix D
AC Amplitude Verification
This procedure is used to check the output amplitude calibration of the
function generator. Verification checks are performed to check the accuracy
of the pre-attenuator and post attenuator. Make sure you have read “Test
Considerations” on page 165.
Set the function generator for each output indicated in the table on the next
page. Use a DMM to measure the ACrms output voltage of the function
generator. Compare the measured results to the test limits shown in the table.
This is a HIGH Z output termination test.

a.The E1441A has a fixed output impedance of 50 Ω on the "Output" terminal. Use the
OUTPut:LOAD 50 | INFinity | MIN | MAX command to set the output termination.
HIGH Z assumes no load on output. 50 Ω assumes a 50 Ω ± 0.1 Ω load on output.
