Model WW5061/2 represents the next
generation of products in the eld of
function, pulse and arbitrary waveform
generators. This instrument is superior
and far more versatile than any existing
equivalent whether it is an analog or digital
product. As a waveform source, this model
can replace analog generators in almost
every application. The Instrument combines
high-frequency performance, versatility and
compact size in a boxed format. Featuring
signal output in the range of 1μHz to
25MHz and 14-bit vertical DAC resolution
and up to 1M arbitrary waveform buffer,
these instruments exhibit performance and
provide solutions to the most demanding
test stimulus challenge.
Versatility
Four waveform types may be generated:
standard, arbitrary, sequenced arbitrary,
and modulated. It is virtually like having four
different generators in a single, compact
package.
As a Function Generator
Most applications require simple and
controllable waveforms such as sine and
square waves; these functions and more
are resident in a built-in library and can be
called to the output using simple and easy
keystrokes. The built-in waveforms are
generated digitally from lookup tables that
ensure accuracy and delity. The use of DDS
technology to generate the controlling clock
enhances clock stability and thus provides
jitter-free and excellent spectral purity. Sine
waves can be generated at up to 25MHz.
There are ten additional waveforms which
have controllable parameters, all accessible
from the front panel.
Arbitrary Waveform Generator
Complex waveforms are used for testing
purposes throughout the industry. While
coordinates for such waveforms can easily be
generated on paper or on computers, there
is a need for digital instruments to take this
data and convert it to electronical signals. An
arbitrary waveform generator is about the only
tool that can take a set of X-Y coordinates and
convert them to real life signals.
Combined with the power of ArbConnection,
there is no limit to what you can create and
generate. Waveform coordinates can be
imported from a variety of sources such as
MATLAB, ASCII les etc. Anything you can
display on one of the composer screens
is downloaded in split-second time and
generated by the main output.
Waveform Memory for High Speed Testing
The instruments are sold with 512k
waveform memory as standard. Optional
1M waveform memory is offered for
applications requiring longer waveforms,
placing the WW5061/2 in a far better
position than its traditional competitors.
The waveform memory is accessible from a
remote host, using fast GPIB, USB or LAN
interface thus minimizing test time needed
when downloading multiple waveforms for
one or more tests.
The entire space of the waveform memory
is backed up by rechargeable batteries
allowing waveforms to be downloaded in
the lab and the generator moved to another
location for eld operation.
