It will also depend on if you want to be able to believe the output level displayed on the siggen. or the attenuator setting. They are likely only "calibrated" for a 50 ohm load. RP Hi, I have a quick and hopefully simple question. I have an oscillator which specifies a maximum load impedance of 50ohm. The input impedance to the device requiring the oscillator is 1500ohm. Are the two devices incompatible and if so how should I go about connecting them. My initial thoughts were an op-amp buffer with unity gain. Any suggestions would be welcome.
