Using a Function / Arbitrary Waveform Generator to Generate Pulses

White Papers

Engineers typically use pulse generators to create pulses for characterizing digital devices. A pulse generator is well-suited for applications that require fast transition times, high accuracy, or frequencies higher than 50 MHz. A dedicated pulse generator may offer multiple channels, pattern generation, double pulses, RZ (return-to-zero) pulses, and the ability to add jitter to the pulse train. When testing complex logic, these features give you the capabilities you need to complete the job.

However, if your application does not require the performance of a dedicated pulse generator, you can use a relatively inexpensive general-purpose function generator to create pulses. These applications include creating trigger signals, clock signals, and controlling logic.
