AWGs with 3.9 GHz bandwidth target 5G/6G and radar
Four new high-performance Arbitrary Waveform Generators (AWGs) from Spectrum Instrumentation, designed for demanding applications in RF and microwave signal generation, deliver output rates of up to 10 GS/s, with 16-bit vertical resolution and bandwidths as high as 3.9 GHz.
Targeted at engineers and scientists, the AWGs are well-suited for applications in advanced fields such as wireless communications, radar system development, quantum research, and aerospace testing.
“This launch represents a major leap forward for us,” said Oliver Rovini, CTO of Spectrum Instrumentation.
“It’s the first time we’ve entered the high-bandwidth space, and we’re doing it with a product line that sets new standards in quality and capability,” said Oliver Rovini, CTO of Spectrum Instrumentation. “With these new AWGs, we’re giving our customers a tool that enables next-generation innovation.”
The AWGs are available as PCIe cards with up to 10 GB/s streaming, as well as standalone NETBOX units with easy control via Ethernet, connecting directly to laptops, PCs, or company networks. The new instruments are ideal for integration into automated test systems.
Output rates of up to 10 GS/s enable ultra-fast signal generation, while 16-bit vertical resolution ensures exceptional signal fidelity. Analogue bandwidths of up to 3.9 GHz deliver true-to-life reproduction of wideband RF and microwave signals.
Other key features include single-ended or differential outputs with up to 4 V output swings, multi-channel synchronisation for complex signal simulations across multiple outputs, and up to 8 GSample memory per channel for flexibility in waveform generation.
These features make the AWGs particularly well-suited for applications that demand high signal quality over wide bandwidths, such as testing of communication standards like 5G and 6G, simulating radar echoes, or generating waveforms for experimental physics and quantum systems.
In addition to their powerful hardware, the AWGs are supported by Spectrum’s comprehensive software suite, which includes drivers for Windows and Linux, as well as programming examples for languages such as C/C++, Python, MATLAB, and LabVIEW. Additionally, SBench 6 software enables interactive operation.
