HP 33120A Function / Arbitrary Waveform Generator

The Keysight / Agilent 33120A Function / Arbitrary Waveform Generator is a high-performance 15 MHz synthesized function generator with built-in arbitrary waveform capability. Its combination of bench-top and system features makes this function generator a versatile solution for your testing requirements now and in the future.

The 33120A Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator uses direct digital-synthesis techniques to create a stable, accurate output signal for clean, low distortion sine waves. It also gives you fast rise- and fall-time square wave, and linear ramp waveforms down to 100 μHz.

Use the 33120A to generate complex custom waveforms such as a heartbeat or the output of a mechanical transducer. With 12-bit resolution, and a sampling rate of 40 MSa/s, the 33120A gives you the lexibility to create any waveform you need. It also lets you store up to four 16,000-deep waveforms in nonvolatile memory.

Front-panel operation of the 33120A is straightforward and intuitive. You can access any of ten major functions with a single key press or two, then use a simple knob to adjust frequency, amplitude and offset. To save time, you can enter voltage values directly in Vp-p, Vrms or dBm. Internal AM, FM, FSK and burst modulation make it easy to modulate waveforms without the need for a separate modulation source. Linear and log sweeps are also built in, with sweep rates selectable from 1ms to 500 s. GPIB and RS-232 interfaces are both standard, plus you get full programmability using SCPI commands.
