This section describes the electrical operation of the AWG7000 Series Arbitrary
Waveform Generators.
The AWG7000 Series Arbitrary Waveform Generators provide four models with
different frequency and numbers of channels. Each model consists of two major
sections: the platform section and generator section. The platform section is
common to each model.
The AWG7000 Series Arbitrary Waveform Generators are based on the Tektronix
DPO7000 series platform which consists of the µATX CPU board and modern
components for a PC. The instrument operates with the microsoft Window XP
operating system. Figure 2-1 on page 2-2 shows the system level block diagram of
the AWG7000 Series.
