Keysight's M9330A arbitrary waveform generator delivers unprecedented performance for creation of complex wideband waveforms. The combination of high sampling rate and high bit resolution in a single instrument enables designers to create ideal waveforms for accurate test of radar, satellite, and frequency-agile systems. Each channel of the M9330A provides 500 MHz of modulation bandwidths and over 65 dBc of spurious-free dynamic range. When the M9330A is combined with a wideband I/Q upconverter, modulation bandwidth of 1 GHz can be realized at microwave frequencies for authentic signal simulations for IF and RF subsystem test.

Features:

• Option 300, dynamic sequencing, is a hardware interface that allows you to dynamically point to pre-defined carrier signals created with the direct digital synthesis engine.
• Option 330, direct digital synthesis, provides efficient compression of narrowband modulation on a carrier.
• Option 350, function generator, is an easy-to-use graphical interface that makes it easy to generate sine waves, square waves, ramps, and many other waveforms as well as AM, FM, FSK, and other modulations.
• dual output channels drive differential and single-ended designs.
• multi-emitter and multi-path simulations are possible via synchronization of multiple modules.
• complex waveforms can be created via advanced sequencing engine.
• leverage code from MATLAB and other programs such as the N7509A Waveform Generation Toolbox for ease of integration.
• 1.25 GS/s sample clock
• 15 bits of vertical resolution
• dual channel operation
• differential and single-ended outputs
• up to 16 MS waveform memory (Option 016)
• multiple module synchronization
• up to 125 k definable waveform segments
• up to 16 k unique definable sequences
• IVI-COM and IVI-C compliant drivers
• complete instrument control from MATLAB and LabView
• compatible with cPCI, PXI and PXIe (hybrid slots only) mainframes 
• create complex scenarios using Keysight's latest signal generation technologies.

MATLAB software for the M9330A is orderable directly from Keysight for making your own arbitrary waveforms (multi-tone signals, pulsed radar signals, and multi-carrier modulated waveforms), measurement and analysis routines, and instrument applications — see more details in the Options, Software, Accessories tab of this page.
