33220A Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator, 20MHz

The Agilent 33220A function generator offers uncompromising performance for functions and waveforms. With 11 standard waveforms plus pulse and arbitrary waveforms - it is the most frequency stable and lowest distortion function generator in its class.

The front panel allows access to all the major functions with a single key or two. The knob or numeric keypad can be used to adjust frequency, amplitude, offset and other parameters. Internal AM, FM, PM, FSK and PWM modulation make it easy to modulate the waveforms without the need for a separate source. Additional features include ramp, triangle, noise, DC waveforms, and pulses with variable edges and are all available standard.

IntuiLink Waveform Editor for the 33220A is an easy to use program that provides add-ins for additional arbitrary waveform features as well as for inputting data from a wide variety of Agilent oscilloscopes including the 5000 series, 6000 series, 7000 series, Infiniium and the 548XX Infiniium series.

 

INSTRUMENT FEATURES USB, GPIB and LAN interfaces included Graph mode for visual verification of signal settings Option 001 provides multiple-unit link for synchronous channels LXI Class C Compliant

WAVEFORM GENERATION 20MHz sine and square waveforms Ramp, triangle, noise, pulse generation with variable edge and DC waveforms 14-bit, 50MSa/s, 64Kpoint arbitrary waveforms AM, FM, PM, FSK and PWM Modulation, Linear and logarithmic sweeps and burst all standard

 

33220A Product Video Demonstration

Take a tour of the 33220A. Common functions can be selected with a single button press. Adjustments can be made using softkeys, a number pad or a knob. At a glance, light function keys clearly show the current instrument state, while a graphical display makes it easy to see the waveform and modify it. See how easy it is to create an arbitrary waveform from the front panel or a more complicated arbitrary waveform using the free IntuiLink software. In addition, the 33220A can be used as a low cost pulse generator, just set the pulse period, width, and edge transition time. Other features demonstrated include pulse width modulation, AM, FM, PM, FSK and sweep.

See how easy it is to generate common waveforms with the 33220A function generator. The five-minute video also shows how easily the 33220A can create arbitrary waveforms and double as a low cost pulse generator.

 

33250A Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator, 80MHz

The 33250A is Agilent´s highest performance function generator, featuring 80MHz bandwidth, arbitrary waveforms and pulse generation. The 33250A uses direct digital-synthesis techniques to produce stable accurate outputs on all waveforms down to 1µHz. The 33250A can generate arbitrary waveforms with 12-bit vertical resolution, 64K memory depth, and a sample rate of 200MSa/s. You can also store up to four 64K-deep arbitrary waveforms in non-volatile memory. A color graphical display makes quick work of setting up complex signals.
