EXR2WAV Arbitrary Function Generator for Infiniium EXR-Series, 50 MHz

The Keysight Arbitrary Waveform Generator (AWG) for integration with Infiniium Series' scopes is ideal for control, testing, and prototyping applications. It offers a level of versatility that enables you to set up complex real-world signals — whether you need precise signals to characterize the performance of a design or need to stress a device to its limits. From low-observable radar to high-density communications, testing is more realistic with our precision arbitrary waveform generators.

• Push radar and electronic warfare designs farther with highly realistic signal scenarios
• Debug your toughest designs with confidence using superior signal fidelity
  
• Use high-resolution and wide-bandwidth signals simultaneously
  
• Stress your device to its limits with clean or distorted signals
