and how does it differentiate from a pure sine wave tone?

Burst simply means you output a waveform for a certain number of cycles based on a trigger you set.

So, a certain “event” will set off your trigger and the function generator will output a signal for a predetermined amount of time.

The standard sine wave is just a continuous output.

Hope this helps!
