Hi folks,
I have a Tek function generator model FG501A and the D.C. offset in the 'fixed' or 'non-variable' position seems real drifty with temperature changes. I thought my unit was bad when I noticed it was offset nearly .5 volts at startup then drifting toward 0 offset after extended warmup, that was until I discovered the unit where I work was even worse than mine at about 1.5 volts of offset. The offset can be adjusted to zero for some exact given temperature, but geez guys, change the temperature about 10 degrees and the offset changes about .25 volts. Anyone ever run into this? Seems kinda crappy compared to most Tek stuff. Do the two units I can lay my hands on have a shot compensating component? Other than d.c. offset drift the unit works perfect. Thanks. |
