Polynomial Waveform Synthesizers
The Analogic Model 2020, 2040, and 2045 Polynomial Waveform
Synthesizers generate complex arbitrary waveforms directly from math-
ematical equations with unparalleled accuracy. With their front-panel
keypad for programming and equation entry, they offer full standalone
capability, unlike any other arbitrary waveform generator available.
These waveform generators can easily be integrated into practically any
computer-controlled test system via RS-232 or high-speed IEEE inter-
faces. No other single instrument can offer the performance or versatili-
ty of Analogic Polynomial Waveform Synthesizers.
The Model 2020 offers the most affordable solution to generating high-
speed, high-quality waveforms. Highly accurate output waves are pro-
duced with 12-bit vertical resolution, using 24-bit floating-point calcula-
tions and a 12-bit D/A converter (DAC). This vertical resolution is
maintained independently of output amplitude by scaling the waveform
to drive the full D/A range, and by adding up to 63 dB of attenuation, as
necessary, to produce the required output. The 2020 generates output
waves at speeds of up to 100 MHz.
Models 2040 and 2045 generate standard functions and arbitrary wave-
forms at very high speeds (up to 800 MHz) with point-to-point resolu-
tion as fine as 1.25 ns. Several times faster than previous arbitrary signal
generators, these instruments provide accurate simulations and thorough
testing at frequencies up to which only rough approximations were pre-
viously feasible. These synthesizers are especially effective for complex
radar and video signal simulations, and for testing high-density/high-
speed disk drives and digital fiber-optic communications links.
To make the world's fastest waveform synthesizers even more power-
ful, the new Models 2040B and 2045B each have a 2 megasample out-
put memory that enables the generation of long, high-definition wave-
forms at high frequencies. With this capacity and outputs of up to 800
megasamples/second, the 2040B and 2045B offer unbeatable perfor-
mance in benchtop instrumentation and ATE.
