AT-AWG500 is a high performance 500 MHz 16Bit fully arbitrary waveform generator. The AT-AWG500 has a powerful parallel architecture which can perform at runtime complex signal processing and waveform sequencing. A powerful analog front-end provides three outputs with different performances and analog signal conditioning options. AT-AWG500 is the ideal choice to generate high quality waveforms in the easiest way ever.
The AT‑AWG500 is a high‑performance 500 MHz, 16‑bit arbitrary waveform generator designed for fast and flexible signal generation. It supports both Arbitrary and DDS (36‑bit) modes, offering up to 349,504 user‑definable waveforms, various triggering options, and built‑in modulation capabilities.
The instrument features three analog outputs (low‑voltage, high‑voltage, and differential) with selectable bandwidths and rise‑time specifications, as well as USB 2.0 connectivity for PC control via a quick‑start GUI or a full‑feature software suite that includes LabVIEW and C/C++ SDKs. Physical dimensions are 17.3 × 27.3 × 6.7 cm, weighing 700 g, and it is powered by a 12 VDC supply.
