Subject: Testing Amplifier Frequency Response

Hello PSN,



I would like to run a frequency response test of my amplifier/filter but I
only have test equipment in the 50 Hz to 50 KHz range.



Do any of you have a recommendation for constructing a generator that would
output DC to 5 Hz with a uniform (flat response) voltage?



There was a CD disc someone was selling (RefCD) at the URL below that
modulates a 1 KHz sine wave with a 1 Hz since wave. I believe the idea is t=
o
filter out the 1 KHz signal at the output of a PC sound card. What are left
are pure VLF signals that could be used to sweep the amplifier/filter.

I know there are several freeware tone generators you can download, but I
don=92t think a PC sound card can reproduce DC to 1 Hz. Am I correct?



Thank you,



Rich
