Product Overview

The Keysight 81180B (Agilent) Arbitrary Waveform Generator offers convenient features that make your test easier. It is ideal for generating multiple waveform formats, so you can achieve interoperability between terrestrial and space-based communication devices.  You can conveniently choose from three different amplifiers with a variety of characteristics. You can switch between the amplifiers using your software application, the programming interface or the instrument’s front panel. In addition, the Agilent 81180B offers unprecedented channel flexibility. For best memory storage, a sequencer helps you create versatile, unique signals, as well as advanced sequencing scenarios that define stepping, looping and conditional jumps of waveforms or waveform sequences.

Features and specifications of the Keysight 81180B (Agilent) include:

• High Bandwidth: 1 GHz modulation bandwidth / channel, 2 GHz I/Q modulation bandwidth and 1.5 GHz carrier frequency
• Reliable and repeatable measurements through best dynamic range and low harmonic distortion. Markers don't reduce DAC resolution.
• 2 Vpp into 50 for many test cases and devices
• 2 or 4 channels. Combine 2 channels phase coherent or use them as two independent instruments in a single box. Two instruments can be synchronized to form a 4-channel system
• 3 software selectable amplifiers optimized for different applications requiring different signal characteristics.
• Advanced sequencing for best usage of 64 MSa memory for real-world signals.
• Dynamic Sequence control lets your application control the waveform – in real time.
• 10 pre-defined waveforms speed up your measurements.
• 10 MSa/s – 4.6 GSa/s, 12 bit Arbitrary Waveform and Function Generator
• 2 GHz IQ modulation bandwidth
• 2 channels (coupled and phase coherent / uncoupled)
• 8-bit external sequence / segment control
• Up to 64 MSa memory
• Advanced sequencing capabilities
• 2 markers with adjustable width and levels, markers do not reduce DAC resolution
