Teledyne LeCroy announced the expansion of its WaveStation series of function/arbitrary waveform generators to include three new models with bandwidth up to 160 MHz and 500 MSps sample rate – over three times more bandwidth and four times more sample rate than the existing models. They also come with a larger 4,3” colour display, intuitive front panel, two output channels and PC waveform editing software.
The new WaveStation 3000 models are available with bandwidths of 80 MHz, 120 MHz and 160 MHz, each with 500 MSps sampling rate, 14-bit resolution and 16 kpts memory per channel. Applications with greater memory needs may access 512 kpts of memory on channel 2, a feature that is standard on all new models.
The front panel provides easy access to basic waveforms and various operating modes. Users can easily create basic sine, square, ramp, pulse and noise waveforms. The large display shows all relevant waveform parameters and waveform shapes.
WaveStation software runs on an external PC and provides additional waveform creation capabilities, allowing waveforms to be created, shaped and edited using mathematical operators, digital filters, or by placing individual sample points. The software also provides a flexible waveform drawing tool to create a freeform waveform sketch on the PC and output it from the WaveStation. WaveStation software allows for importing waveforms captured on a WaveAce oscilloscope via USB and recreating them on the WaveStation.
With standard USB and GPIB connectivity it is easy to control WaveStation scopes remotely or integrate them into a test system. All necessary I/O for synchronisation can be accessed on the rear panel, while a front panel USB port provides an easy way to save waveforms.
