This manual, "How To Understand And Use Your Signal Generator," is part of the Technical Application Series from May 1963. It is a 194-page book available in Adobe Acrobat format, designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of signal generators, a primary tool in electronics. The content assumes no prior knowledge of electronic theory, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced individuals in electronics.
The book is divided into six parts:
Part One - An Introduction To Signal Generators, covering general signal generator operating instructions.
Part Two - Test Chassis And Parts Assembly, offering complete assembly instructions for the test chassis and special quick-connect parts used for experiments in subsequent parts.
Part Three - Basic Principles Of Electronics, explaining the fundamental theory of electronics with practical demonstrations included.
Part Four - Signal Generator Theory, using the basic principles learned in Part Three to explain the theory of signal generator operation.
Part Five - General Maintenance, providing instructions for routine maintenance or repairs that a signal generator might need.
Part Six - Generator Applications, describing the special types of signal generators and their various applications.
The book uses the Model IG-82 AF Signal Generator and the Model IG-102 RF Signal Generator as examples of typical signal generators. It covers a wide range of topics, including electricity, capacitors, coils, transformers, oscillators, modulators, power supplies, and more. Additionally, it includes a bibliography, glossary of electronic terms, service information, and a replacement parts list.
With the knowledge and experience gained from this manual, individuals can pursue a hobby in electronics or troubleshoot and adjust radios and other electronic devices using their signal generator.
