World’s fastest 16-bit arbitrary waveform generator

29 June 2022 Test & Measurement

The Arb Rider AWG-5000 is the world’s fastest 16-bit arbitrary waveform generator which is capable of a 6,16 GS/s real-time update rate (12,32 GS/s in RF mode) and 16-bit vertical resolution. Available in two, four or eight channel models, Arb Rider AWG-5000 is currently the fastest AFG (arbitrary function generator) available, capable of generating up to a 2 GHz sinewave. Combined with the Simple Rider software, the AWG-5000 provides an easy-to-use interface.

With its 2 GHz bandwidth, up to 5 Vpp output range and up to 4 Gsample memory depth, the AWG-5000 is an ideal choice for physics experiments, quantum computers, and aerospace & defence applications. The AWG-5000 also has excellent analog performance allowing it a fast rise time of only 110 ps at the maximum amplitude of 5 Vpp.

Up to 32 digital channels may be combined with two, four or eight analog channels, making this AFG a full-featured mixed signal generator.

A dedicated intra-chassis synchronisation bus allows multi-instrument synchronisation of up to four units to generate up to 32 analog channels and 128 digital channels for the most powerful mixed signal generator available.
