New feature: AC-mode #6

Closed AndersWestman closed 4 years ago

AndersWestman commented 6 years ago

Would it be possible to make an “AC-mode” there a predefined list or similar is doing the half wave for each channel. The channels are external serial coupled to make a midpoint reference.
If it’s possible to calculate the list in the firmware just by typing in AC voltage and frequency that would be great, but some predefined voltages at 50 and 60Hz should possible cover many cases.

We have to add first the new set of SCPI commands as a building blocks for this functionality that in combination with new SRAil (see INSTrument:COUPle:TRACking) type of output coupling could do the job:

Used waveform shape has to be HSINusoid on both channels with PHASe shift od 180 degrees.

Cannot be done without 2-quadrant outputs. The DCP405 which has down-programmer has limited current sink capability.
