The Keysight M3201A PXIe Arbitrary Waveform Generator provides a 4-channel on-board FPGA and optional FPGA software tools that enable real-time sequencing, inter-module synchronization, and a graphical FPGA design environment.
Applications
Aerospace and defense
Electronics test
Communications
Features
1 Slot PXIe 4-channel Arbitrary Waveform Generator
500 MSa/s, 16-bit, 200 MHz bandwidth
High quality output signals with low phase noise
Includes function generation (sine, triangle, square, DC) and amplitude, frequency, and phase modulation functions
Performance Features
Up to 2 GB of on-board RAM (~1 GSa)
Optional simultaneous amplitude and phase modulation (DM1)
Flowchart-style programming supported by the hardware virtual instrument design environment (M3601A) provides real-time sequencing, inter-module synchronization, and real-time decision making. (Requires M3201A option HV1)
The graphical FPGA design environment (M3602A) supports easy customization of the M3201A by non-FPGA programmers. (Requires M3201A option PF1)
The M3201A PXIe Arbitrary Waveform Generator is ideally suited for general purpose arbitrary waveform generator automated test requirements. It features high channel density, as well as high-quality output and low phase noise. Optional real-time sequencing, intermodulation synchronization, and graphical FPGA programming software tools extend its capabilities to support a wide range of solutions, including envelope tracking (ET) and digital pre-distortion (part of the PA/FEM reference solution), MIMO, baseband electronics design, wireless device manufacturing, ATE, beamforming and other multi-channel coherent signal generation, and multi-channel signal generation.
