New Tektronix 8 Channel, 16 Bit Resolution Arbitrary Waveform Generator – Less noise and Cleaner signals

The AWG5200 delivers a surprisingly affordable combination of sample rate and vertical resolution. The unit creates real-life environments based on accurate, noise-free signals, and 10 GS/s 16-bit performance that allows for direct generation of signals up to 6 GHz.

  • 16 bits of DAC resolution
  • 10 GS/s sample rate
  • Extremely low noise floor
  • Build reliable setups with pre-compensation software

The AWG5200 is able to scale efficiently with any setup, with up to 8 channels per unit, low cost per channel, and multi-unit synchronization. The fully-integrated platform allows for faster waveform loading and cleaner RF performance.

  • Simultaneously use up to 8 analog channels, 32 digital and 4 flags
  • Up to 8 independent channels, multi-unit synchronization
  • Smart and affordable with low base price per channel

The SourceXpress user interface, included with the AWG5200, runs natively on the AWG and a PC. It works with the plug-ins to allow users to easily and conveniently switch between them. The plug-ins simplify the process of generating complex RF environment signals and modulated radar pulses, helping users to iterate through designs much more quickly.

  • Radar, RF, OFDM, Environment Plug-ins
  • Simulate AWG from anywhere on PC
  • Create waveforms even when there is no access to AWG
  • Control AWG remotely

The AWG5200 streamlines a test set-up. It starts by being an off-the-shelf solution for simplifying or replacing the current complex signal generation set-up. Backwards compatibility with other Tektronix signal generators means users don’t need to re-learn a set-up process. Finally, the ability to automate tests using Matlab scripts makes it a simpler set-up end-to-end.
