Tips & Tricks: TG8000 Signal Generator Zone Plate Test Pattern

To assess the quality of video processes, such as a format or standards conversion, a “Zone Plate” test pattern is required to accurately measure the frequency characteristics of the equipment. Read this brief to learn how to use the TG8000 Signal Generator and WFM8300 Advanced waveform Monitor to generate a Zone Plate test pattern and measure the cutoff frequency of the Device-Under-Test (DUT).
