Description:

Demo Apparatus is a signal generator that has 9 harmonic Oscillators. The phas and amplitude of each oscillator is variable. It is connected to an oscilloscope to show the output wave and a speaker to hear the sound The 9 generators can be synchronized. The shape of the output wave changes as you add various harmonics. The basis of a square wave can be made by adding odd harmonics and proper amplitudes. other wave shapes can also be made.
