The Model 685C High-Performance Arbitrary Waveform Generator features some of the most exciting waveform development advancem
The Model 685C High-Performance Arbitrary Waveform Generator features some of the most exciting waveform development advancements. The industry-leading flexibility, speed, and power levels provide users with the most modulation and creator options available. This flexibility is provided by the Model 685C, which features premium signal integrity, an easy-to-use touch-screen display, and a slew of new operational modes. Differential outputs have many advantages, including immunity to external noise, which is especially important in low-voltage systems.
The Model 685C features industry-leading 16-bit arbitrary waveforms with 1.5Vpp and 600ps rise and fall times. Users can define complex waveforms with up to 16,384 analog waveform and digital pattern sequences using the software interface’s flexible interface. The possibilities do not end there; create your own execution flow using loops, jumps, and condition branches. Waveform memory capacity is 4GSamples.
 
The Model 685C is the ideal instrument for all your most complex tests and cutting-edge applications, whether it is generating a complex pulse train, a series of radar pulses, pulsed RF signals with impairments, Gaussian pulses, multi-level pulses, double pulses for IGBT/Mosfet experiments, pulses for Advanced Research and Quantum computing.
The 685C is upgradeable for the instrument’s life and can be synchronized with 3 additional units to generate up to 32 analog / 128 digital channels.
