Abstract

Most fatigue test machines can be driven by an external voltage source. This report describes a method of synthesizing suitable voltage waveforms (of any desired shape) using a Commodore PET/CBM microcomputer and a (12 bit) D/A converter connected to the PET’s IEEE port. The software is written in BASIC.
