Highlights

Unrivaled Transition Time Performance

The Keysight 81133A simple pulse generator sets the standard for high-speed applications by providing programmable pulse periods from 15 MHz (66.6 ns) to 3.35 GHz (298.5 ps) on all channels. When timing and performance requirements are critical, the 81133A’s fast rise times and low intrinsic jitter allow the precise and in-depth characterization of devices such as receivers or backplanes.

  • Clock and data signals distortion
  • Graphical user interface that provides quick access to all relevant parameters
  • Fast transition times
  • Hardware-based PRBS and memory-based pattern generation

Notice to EU customers: This product is no longer available due to lack of compliance with EU RoHS directive 2011/65/EU. Keysight will continue service and support to the end of worldwide support life.

Full Testing Control for Accurate Emulation

Versatile variable cross-point and jitter insertion capabilities make the 81133A the perfect fit for signal integrity tests.

  • Complements the Keysight 54850A high-performance Infiniium oscilloscopes and the 86100C Infiniium DCA-J wide-bandwidth oscilloscope
  • Delay control input and variable crossover point functionalities allow fast and easy signal integrity measurements, including emulation of real-world signals
  • Direct modes allow changes of frequency without dropouts or glitches
