Key benefits of the new arbitrary waveform generator

  • Integrated, ready-to-use instrument
  • Up to 2 differential channels per module at 128 GSa/s with analog bandwidth of 58 GHz
  • Up to 8 GSa memory per channel allowing generation of longer data streams.
  • One differential sample marker per channel programmable up to 8 GHz
  • Works with the M8008A clock module, with the possibility of direct clocking from an external source (i.e., 12.5…16 GHz as input to the M8008A), and providing additional auxiliary outputs such as a reference clock output at ¼ of Clock In of M8198A (i.e., 12.5…16 GHz)
  • Operates with well-known software, including MATLAB, Keysight IQtools, PathWave Signal Generation (PWSG)
  • Advanced Waveform Utility (AWU) and SCPI programming interfaced based on M8070B
