33600A Series Trueform Waveform Generator Test Challenges
Generating the signals you need for your
measurements can be a tedious and
time-consuming task, one that’s often
complicated by uncertainty whether your
signal generator is outputting the signals
you expect. Keysight’s 33600A Series
of waveform generators with exclusive
Trueform technology offer you the
capabilities, idelity and lexibility you need
to easily and conidently generate signals
for even your most complex tests. Superior
signal integrity guarantees you the
highest resolution and lowest distortion
for playing arbitrary waveforms with a
complete representation of signals and
creating complex waveform sequences.
The ability to choose from a range of
different upgradeable models means you
have the functionality you need to easily
address your test challenges today and in
the future.
Shown at right are some of the key test
challenges for which the 33600A Series
Trueform waveform generators are
especially well suited.
