Hi All,
I'm getting back into electronics so please excuse my simplistic question...
I've recently go a new DSO and have been watching some threads on measuring capacitors, in particular ESR.
That has lead me to use my 25+ year old Feedback FG601 function generator. For sine waves it's pretty good up to it's max frequency of 1.49MHz.
Square waves on the other hand at that frequency are unusable. This is being an example.
For the capacitor ESR measurement. I need a 200KHz square wave and this is also slurred. (see below)
Am I seeing the limitations of my old equipment? If so is there a way around the issue or is the cure a new modern FG?
Many thanks an anticipation.
