The model 3001 generates low-distortion sine waves at
46 discrete frequencies. Output impedance is 600 Ωat
the dual banana jacks and the output voltage is
continuously adjustable up to 1.2 V (RMS) into an open
circuit. Output flatness is ±0.5 dB. A 5 Vpp square
wave is provided at separate banana jacks for
synchronization. Frequency accuracy is 3% from
20 Hz to 100 kHz. The unit is powered by a 9 V
battery.
