The SmartScope has an Arbitraty waveform generator, capable of generating signals between the [0V, 3.3V] voltage range at a sample rate of 100MS/s.

AWG pin location

The signal generated by the AWG is presented on the 3rd-left pin on the bottom row of the AUX connector, as shown in the following image:

Please keep in mind that you always should bridge 2 wires between 2 separate devices. In this case:

  • The AWG output signal
  • The ground, so both devices have the same reference voltage. (0V means the same on both devices)

In the image above, you can see the AWG pin is surrounded by 2 ground pins, either of which you can use to connect to the other device.
