Arbitrary Waveform Generators (Awg) - Agilent Technologies 93000 SOC Series Training Manual

Lesson 1 – Analog Modules
1-2 Arbitrary Waveform Generators
(AWG)
Arbitrary Waveform Generators (AWG) can source various
waveforms to DUTs. An AWG uses waveform data that is stored in
its waveform memory to generate analog waveforms.
You create arbitrary waveform data with the software interface,
Mixed-Signal Tool. The output order of waveforms is controlled by
the sequence program in the internal sequencer. You can create an
AWG sequence program with the Analog Setup Tool. The waveform
data is downloaded into the waveform memory, and the sequence
program is downloaded into the sequencer.
The following types of AWGs are available:
• E9685A High Resolution AWG (1 MSamples/s (1 Msps) 18-bit)
