信号发生器是一种常用的信号源，广泛地应用于电子电路、自动控制系统和教学实验等领域。目前使用的信号发生器大部分是函数信号发生器，且特殊波形发生器的价格昂贵。所以本设计使用的是AT89c51单片机构成的发生器，可产生三角波、方波、正弦波等多种特殊波形和任意波形，波形的频率可用程序控制改变。在单片机上加外围器件距阵式键盘，通过键盘控制波形频率的增减以及波形的选择，并用了LCD显示频率大小。在单片机的输出端口接DAC0832进行D/A转换，再通过运放进行波形调整，最后输出波形接在示波器上显示。本设计具有线路简单、结构紧凑、价格低廉、性能优越等优点。-　　Signal-generator is a kind of signal source in common use, broadly applied at the electronics electric circuit, auto control system and teaching experiment etc. Currently used mostly function signal generator signal generator, waveform generator and a special price of expensive . So the dissertation is usage of the AT89s51 single-chip microcomputer constitute of wave-form generator, which can generate triangle wave, square wave, sine wave etc variety wave-form, the period of wave can be controlled by procedure, at outer circle spare part of the machine, plus independence type keyboard , which can control wave increase or decrease of form-frequency and the choice of wave-form, at the same time LED display frequency size. The output of the machine connect DAC0832 to carry on a DA conversion，again pass operation amplifier to put an end exportation wave-form. This design has advantage of simple circuit, tightly packed structure, cheap price, superior function etc.
