MODELS WS8101/2
100MHz Single/Dual Channel
Arbitrary Function Generators
• Single / Dual Channel Arbitrary / Function Generators
• Linear & logarithmic sweeps
• 100MHz sine and 62.5MHz square waves
• Continuous, triggered, gate and burst
• Triangle, ramp, sinc, gaussian, exponential, noise, pulse
generation with variable edge, and DC waveforms
• AM, FM, FSK, and PSK modulation
• 16Vp-p into 50Ω, 32Vp-p into open circuit

The Tabor Wave Standard 8101/2 is a
Single / Dual Channel Arbitrary / Function
Generator with a 100MHz bandwidth and
the functionality of a function generator,
arbitrary generator and pulse generator all
in one easy to use high performance unit. It
is a compact stand alone bench top unit that
will satisfy all of the industry and education
standard testing needs for years to come.
Standard Waveforms
The WS8101/2 has 11 built in functions for
quick and easy wave generation. Front panel
operations allows for easy selection of wave
form and editing of all wave parameters.
All of the standard waves can reach up to
31.25MHz with Sine and Square going as
high as 100MHz and 62.5MHz respectively.
User Dened Waveforms
For more advanced users the WS8101/2
with its 16-bit vertical resolution offers
a standard 512kb memory depth and
a 250MS/s sample clock for designing
waveforms. With the ability to control and
edit the value of each and every point any
wave is possible. The memory can be
divided into segments for storing all of the
user dened waveforms.
• High resolution 3.8” LCD, color display
Modulated Waveforms
Agility and modulation capabilities open
the door to diverse applications. In addition
to the capability of generating any shape
and style of waveform with the arbitrary
waveform generation power, the products
can also do standard modulation schemes
such as FM, AM, FSK, sweep and PSK
without sacricing the power of the
instrument control and output run modes.
Remote Control
Model WS8101/2 comes standard with
a variety of interfaces: LAN, USB and
GPIB allowing the user to freely select
the interface best suited to his individual
requirements. The included ArbConnection
software is a powerful editorial tool for
designing waveforms and provides the user
with full control of instrument functions,
modes and features.
Accuracy and Stability
As standard, the instrument is equipped
with an internal frequency reference that
has 1ppm accuracy and stability over a
period of 1 year. An external frequency
reference is provided on the rear panel for
applications requiring greater accuracy or
stability, supported by the instrument’s up
to 14 digits resolution from remote.
Multiple Environments to Write Your Code
Model WS8101/2 comes with a complete
set of drivers, allowing you to write your
application in various environments such
as: Labview, CVI, C++, VB and MATLAB.
You may also link the supplied dll to other
Windows based API’s or, use low level
SCPI commands (Standard Commands for
Programmable Instruments) to program the
instrument, regardless if your application
is written for Windows, Linux or Macintosh
operating systems.
Easy to Use
Large and user-friendly 3.8” back-lit color LCD
display facilitates browsing through menus,
updating parameters and displaying detailed
and critical information for your waveform
output. Combined with numeric keypad, cursor
position control and a dial, the front panel
controls simplify the often complex operation
of an arbitrary function generator.
Automated External Self-Calibration
Leading-edge technology is implemented
to allow calibration from any interface, USB,
GPIB or LAN and calibration factors are
stored in a ash memory thus eliminating
the need to open instrument covers.
