Key Features
125 MSa/s DDS Platform
Advanced DDS architecture with 125 MSa/s sampling and 14-bit vertical resolution gives a practical, low-cost signal source for basic analog, digital and training workflows.
EasyPulse for Practical Pulse Work
EasyPulse keeps fast rising and falling edges at low frequency and low-duty-cycle settings, making the SDG800 more flexible than simple DDS-only pulse generation.
Standard and Built-in Arbitrary Waveforms
The series outputs sine, square, ramp, pulse and Gaussian noise, with 46 built-in arbitrary waveforms including DC for common mathematics, engineering and application signals.
Complete Modulation, Sweep and Burst
AM, DSB-AM, FM, PM, FSK, ASK, PWM, linear/logarithmic sweep and burst functions support teaching, component test, sensor simulation and basic communications demonstrations.
16 kpts Arbitrary Waveform Editing
14-bit, 16 kpts arbitrary waveform creation and 10 nonvolatile waveform storage locations allow engineers to reuse custom stimulus patterns without rebuilding them each time.
USB Host / Device and Remote Control
Standard USB Host and USB Device interfaces support U-disk storage, waveform transfer and remote-control workflows for education benches and simple automated test setups.
