Arbitrary/Function Generators AFG3000C Series Datasheet Applications Electronic test and design Sensor simulation Functional test Education and training Superior performance and versatility Users can choose from 12 different standard waveforms. Arbitrary waveforms can be generated up to 128 K in length at high sampling rates. On pulse waveforms, leading and trailing edge time can be set Unmatched performance, versatility, intuitive operation, and affordability independently. External signals can be connected and added to the output make the AFG3000C Series of Function, Arbitrary Waveform, and Pulse signal. Dual-channel models can generate two identical or completely Generators the most useful instruments in the industry. different signals. All instruments feature a highly stable time base with only 1 ppm drift per year. Key performance specifications 10 MHz, 25 MHz, 100 MHz, or 240 MHz sine waveforms Intuitive user interface shows more 14 bits, 250 MS/s, 1 GS/s, or 2 GS/s arbitrary waveforms information at a single glance Amplitude up to 20 V into 50 loads p-p Color TFT LCD screen on all models shows all relevant waveform parameters and graphical wave shape at a single glance. This gives full Key features confidence in the signal settings and lets you focus on the task at hand. Shortcut keys provide direct access to frequently used functions and 5.6 in. display for full confidence in settings and waveform shape parameters. Others can be selected conveniently through clearly structured Multi-language and intuitive operation saves setup time menus. This reduces the time needed for learning and relearning how to use the instrument. Look and feel are identical to the world s most popular Pulse waveform with variable edge tmes TDS3000 Oscilloscopes. AM, FM, PM, FSK, PWM Sweep and burst ArbExpress software included for creating Dual-channel models save cost and bench space waveforms with ease USB connector on front panel for waveform storage on memory device With this PC software waveforms can be seamlessly imported from any Tektronix oscilloscope, or defined by standard functions, equation editor, USB, GPIB, and LAN and waveform math.
