Arbitrary Waveform Generator

 

The AWG70000B Series Arbitrary Waveform Generator represents the cutting edge in sample rate, signal fidelity and waveform memory, making it ideal for design, testing and operations of complex components, systems and experiments. With up to sample rate of 50 GS/s and 10-bit vertical resolution, it delivers the industry's best signal stimulus solution for easy generation of ideal, distorted and “real-life” signals.

What’s New

  • Optional memory expansion up to 32 Gigasamples
  • Streaming Waveform ID
  • Windows 10 support

 


Tektronix RSA7100 & AWG70000

Recreating real world chaos

Streaming Waveform ID gives users immediate access to 16,383 sequence steps through an Ethernet network connection. For applications such as quantum computing, electronic warfare threat simulations and radar receiver with interference signal testing, that need dynamic technique modification in a scenario to quickly change waveforms, replicating real world simulations with unprecedented accuracy. Streaming Waveform ID also provides direct programmatic access allowing you to do more in a time sensitive testing period.

 

The cleanest, truest to life signals.

10 bits of resolution with a full range of sample rates (up to 50 Gs/s) allows you to simulate complex environments, recreate objects of interest and reliably generate precise test signals—all with low EVM and noise. Directly generate signals with up to 18 GHz of bandwidth or generate baseband I/Q streams.

Highlights

10 bits of resolution
SFDR -80 dBc

Tools that let you be as arbitrary as you want to be.

AWG Software Library supports fast development of waveforms, inserts jitter, pre-distorts waveforms for optimal EVMs, and even simulates complex real world environments. All waveform plug-ins integrate seamlessly into the AWG GUI and can be run on your PC when you can't make it to lab. Generate all the waveforms you need—there’s no charge to compile.

Highlights

  • RF generic plug-in for general waveform creation needs
  • Precompensation for optimal performance
  • High Speed Serial and ISI for creating standards or inserting jitter
  • Multitone and Chirp plug-ins
  • Environmental plug-in to create specific RF environments

 

Test more. Test faster. Test now.

Ready to use just minutes out of the box, the AWG70000B accelerates the pace of test. The AWG Sync Hub enables plug-and-play instrument-to-instrument synchronization, allowing experiments or test set-ups to scale with ease. It’s easy to set up too, so you’ll spend less time on synchronization and more time doing.

Synchronous & Multiple Unit Applications White Paper: Synchronous and Multiple Unit Applications

Highlights

  • Less than 10ps of skew means tight instrument-instrument synchronization
  • AWG Sync Hub has all of the cables and hardware you need to sync up to 4 AWGs.
  • SourceXpress software enables flexible remote instrument control, with support for multiple synchronized instruments

Environmental Plug-in for Arbitrary Waveform Generators

This video explores our latest AWG waveform generation Plug in for current AWG70K and AWG5200 products. This RF Environment Plug-in has been highly anticipated and hopefully this video will help you understand the features and benefits of this easy to use tool for creating complex RF Environmental Scenarios.

So what is RF environmental testing? With other RF signals being transmitted in close proximity to Radar signals it is important to guarantee these signals will not impact accuracies of the radar responses. This is not only true for EW military applications but also important for air traffic control and other commercial applications.
