Keithley’s Model 3390 50MHz Arbitrary Waveform/Function Generator has the fastest repetition rates for waveform generators in its class – at least 2X faster than the competition. In addition to high sine wave frequency, increased speed provides a variety of application benefits, such as higher repetition rates for square, triangle, ramp, and arbitrary waveforms, faster rise times in pulse and point-to-point arbitrary waveform transition, higher modulation frequencies, and more realistic noise simulation. The Model 3390 has four times the memory capability of competing offerings, with 256,000 points, compared to competitive waveform generators that only offer 8,000 or 64,000. More points translate to a smoother waveform or a waveform four times as long with the same resolution.
The Model 3390 can perform six different key functions in one package, saving valuable rack space and eliminating the need to purchase separate instruments for function generation, pulse generation, waveform generation, pattern generation, noise generation, and modulation. The Model 3390 features a 10MHz standard external reference clock port that gives users the ability to easily synchronize multiple Model 3390 units or other equipment, simplifying unit-to-unit synchronization.
The Model 3390 features a number of built-in standard waveforms and also allows users to define and store their own custom waveforms. It includes Keithley’s KiWAVE Software, a waveform creation utility for creating custom arbitrary waveforms and managing waveform memory. KiWAVE lets users view waveforms in real units and perform waveform editing.
