Low-Cost Programmable Multi-Function Generator Offers Complete Testing Solutions
| YORBA LINDA, CA . September 19, 2005 – B&K Precision Corporation introduces the Model 4051, a programmable multifunction generator that is extremely versatile and affordable. Priced at only$1,099, it is the perfect instrument for R&D, Manufacturing Test Systems, Educational and Training applications, and Service and Repair. |

In addition to the standard features one would expect on a function
generator, the Model 4051 adds an adjustable triple output switching
power supply, universal logic probe, auto-ranging frequency counter and
a digital voltmeter. All of these features allow the user to analyze
and measure many aspects of an electronic circuit.
Some of the unique features of the B+K Precision Model 4051 include:
Utilizing
a standard 115VAC power source, B+K Precision’s Model 4051 is capable
of producing precision sine, square, triangle, +/- pulse, or +/- ramp
waves over the 0.15Hz to 20MHz in 8 ranges. This encompasses
subaudible, audio, ultrasonic and RF applications. Extremely
versatile, B+K Precision’s new Model 4051 combines several functions
such as waveform generation, pulse generation (through variable
symmetry), an adjustable triple output switching power supply,
universal logic probe, auto-ranging frequency counter and a digital
voltmeter frequency sweep, into one device. The instrument also
provides the added convenience of a built-in frequency counter. This
permits more accurate determination of output frequency than is
possible with a simple calibrated dial. Course and fine tuning controls
permit precision setting of the output frequency. A continuously
variable DC offset allows the output to be injected directly into
circuits at the correct DC bias level. Other
specifications include a TTL Output (open circuit condition for
frequencies </-2MHz) of </-0.4V max. logic low level voltage,
>-2.6V max logic high level voltage with a rise time of </-15ns
and 50% typical duty cycle. CMOS Output level ranges from 3.0V to
15.0V, +/-0.5 Vp-p, with a rise time of 120ns. As a Frequency Counter,
the unit has a range of 3.0Hz to 35MHz auto-ranging. The unit’s triple
output DC power supply offers out put voltages of 5V/3.3V (Vcc), 0~+24V
(+Vs) and 0~-24V (-Vs) with output current ranging from 0.5A to 5.0A. Measuring
a compact 5.3” X 9.5” X 10.5,” the Model 4051 only weighs 7.5lbs and is
available for immediate delivery. It is priced at a low $1,099.00 and
comes with B&K Precision Corporation’s outstanding warranty, AC
line cord, BNC cable with clips, logic Probe, and user manual. Optional
equipment includes an RS-232C D-sub 9-pin Male-to- Female interface
cable and Universal Solderless Breadboard Kit with banana plugs. For
over 54 years, B&K Precision Corporation has developed a reputation
for excellence in the design and manufacture of high quality, reliable
and cost-effective test and measurement products. Recognized for their
price-performance value, ease of use, measurement accuracy and
application flexibility, B&K Precision Corporation products are
available worldwide through a global network of authorized distributors Attn. Editors: To obtain a high resolution image of this product, please go to http://www.bkprecision.com/hires

Operating as a Sweep
Generator, the Model 4051 offers linear or log sweep with variable
sweep rate and adjustable sweep time. Variable symmetry of the output
waveform converts the instrument to a Pulse Generator capable of
generating rectangular waves or pulses, ramp or saw tooth waves, and
slewed sine waves.
