Hi all I am playing arround with a Siglent SDG2042X and a DS1074Z.
I was trying to create a bode plot script in scilab, but was getting unexpected data.
So what I did was hookup the siggen on the Rigol and measure the response from 1..100MHz in 1Mhz steps:
Cable 1 is the one included with the SDG2042X.
Cable 2 is from Batronix CFL200.
Drop down at the end is about -10db/decade arround the -3db point.
Both devices are unlocked to maximum bandwidth.
Is this because I didn't terminate (50ohm) at the scope end? I didn't expect this below 100MHz.
Or did unlock backfire and is the DS1074Z defaulting to 50Mhz (system info shows DS1104Z and option for bandwidth 100mhz offcial).
The SDG2042X normally has a bandwidth for sines of 40MHz, but is unlocked and shows SDG2122X and allows upto 120MHz.
Scilab script:
clear;
format("v",20);
// Cable 1 => Siglent SDG 2042X included cable, markings 3D-FB
// Cable 2 => Batronix BNC-Cable CLF200, 50 Ω, 1m, markings CLF-200 LOW LOSS 50 OHM COAXIAL CABLE
// 0 => SDG2042X:CH1->DS1074Z:CH1 (Cable 1), SDG2042X:CH2->DS1074Z:CH2 (Cable 2)
// 1 => SDG2042X:CH1->DS1074Z:CH2 (Cable 1), SDG2042X:CH2->DS1074Z:CH1 (Cable 2)
// 2 => SDG2042X:CH2->DS1074Z:CH1 (Cable 1), SDG2042X:CH1->DS1074Z:CH2 (Cable 2)
