Product type
Signal generators are electronic devices that produce repeating or non-repeating electronic signals. They are commonly used in testing and measurement applications to simulate various types of signals for electronic devices. These generators can create sine waves, square waves, triangular waves, and other waveforms, allowing engineers and technicians to evaluate the performance of circuits and systems under controlled conditions.
| Frequency range | DC to several GHz |
| Output power | Typically up to +20 dBm |
| Waveform types | Sine, square, triangle, pulse, and arbitrary waveforms |
| Modulation types | AM, FM, PM, and PWM |
| Connectivity options | USB, Ethernet, GPIB, and RS-232 |
When choosing a signal generator, consider the frequency range and output power required for your specific applications. It's important to specify the types of waveforms and modulation capabilities you need, as well as any connectivity options for integration with other testing equipment. Additionally, inquire about any necessary certifications or standards relevant to your industry.
