AFG3000 Series Quick Start User Manual
To Output an FSK Waveform
Frequency Shift Keying modulation is a modulation technique that shifts the output signal frequency between two frequen-
cies: the carrier frequency and Hop frequency.
Quick Tip
The AFG3000 series instruments generate a phase continuous FSK signal.
1. Follow the steps described on page 46 
to display the modulation type selec-
tion submenu.
In this example, select FSK as the 
modulation type.
2. The FSK parameter setting screen is 
displayed. 
Select Internal or External as FSK 
source.
3. If you select Internal, you can set the 
FSK Rate.
If you select External, the FSK Rate is 
ignored.
4. Set Hop Frequency.
Carrier waveform frequency shifts to the 
Hop frequency with the specified FSK 
rate, and then returns to the original 
frequency.
