Key Benefits of the New Arbitrary Waveform Generator
- 4 channels at 128 GSa/s or 2 channels 256 GSa/s with up to 70 GHz nominal analog bandwidth
- Provides research engineers a high-performance signal source for arbitrary signals, enabling the development of designs up to 140 GBd
- Keysight’s M8199A 256 GSa/s AWG delivers twice the sampling rate of any AWG on the market today, coupled with at least 50 percent higher analog bandwidth. As a result, research engineers can quickly develop advanced components for terabit transmission systems
- Integrated, ready-to-use instrument
- Operates with well-known software, like MATLAB or Keysight IQ Tools and
- SCPI programming interface based on M8070B
- High flexibility with upgrade options from 2 channels at 128 GSa/s to 4 channels at 256 GSa/s
Keysight’s M8199A arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) features four channels at 128 GSa/s or two channels at 256 GSa/s with up to 70 GHz nominal analog bandwidth.
As a high-performance arbitrary signal source, the M8199A enables the development of designs of 128 Gbaud and beyond, including advanced components for terabit transmission systems.
With up to 4 differential 128 GSa/s output channels per 2-slot AXIe module and the ability to synchronize up to 4 modules, the M8199A is well suited to stimulate multi-lane high-speed interfaces in an economic fashion.
