The new products are intended for engineers and scientists working in advanced environments, such as wireless communications, radar system development, quantum research, and aerospace testing.
These new AWGs are supplied as PCIe cards up to 10 GB/s or as standalone NETBOX units that are easily controlled via Ethernet and connect directly to laptops, PCs, or corporate networks. The new instruments are ideal for integration into automated testing systems. Their main features are:
• Output speeds up to 10 GS/s for ultra-fast signal generation
• 16-bit vertical resolution for exceptional signal fidelity
• Analog bandwidths up to 3.9 GHz for faithful reproduction of broadband RF and microwave signals
• Single or differential termination outputs with up to 4V output variations
• Multi-channel synchronization for complex signal simulations with multiple outputs
• Up to 8 GS of memory per channel for greater flexibility when generating waveforms
These characteristics make the new AWG suitable for applications that demand high signal quality over large bandwidths, such as testing 5G and 6G communication standards, simulating radar echoes, or generating waveforms for experimental physical and quantum systems.
In addition to their hardware, the new AWGs are supported by Spectrum's comprehensive software suite, which includes drivers for Windows and Linux, as well as programming examples for languages such as C/C++, Python, MATLAB, and LabVIEW, along with Spectrum's SBench 6 software for interactive operation. These new high-performance AWGs come with a 5-year warranty, free lifetime firmware and software updates, and direct support from Spectrum's design engineers.
