Highlights

AWG with the Highest Combination of Speed, Bandwidth and Channel Density

The Keysight Technologies, Inc. M8194A arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) has the highest sample rate and the widest bandwidth in its class with up to 4 synchronized channels operating simultaneously in one module.

  • AWG with the highest combination of speed, bandwidth, and channel density
  • 1, 2, or 4 differential channels on a 1-slot AXIe module enable optimized channel density
  • 120 GSa/s sample rate
  • arbitrary signal generation with frequency content up to 50 GHz
  • synchronization across modules
  • 8-bit vertical resolution
  • 512 kSamples per channel (enables PRBS 215-1)

Designed to meet the requirements of 64 GBd / 64 QAM and 100 GBd PAM4, the M8194A addresses coherent optical and multi-level / multi-channel digital signal requirements. The M8194A is one of Keysight's high-speed AWGs, delivering 120 GSa/s and bandwidth up to 50 GHz. The M8194A offers flexibility, without complexity, in single- or multi-channel operation.
