Glitch-free timing changes
Timing values can now be swept without
the danger of misleading pulses or
dropouts that could cause measurement
errors. (Applies to continuous mode,
values < 100 ms, consecutive values
between 0.5 and twice the previous value
on the 81101A, 81104A, 81110A).
Reliable measurements
All models provide clean, accurate pulses
with excellent repeatability, thus contribut-
ing to measurement integrity.
The Agilent 81110A features self-calibration
for more accuracy. It also offers a choice
of output modules. The Agilent 81111A
165 MHz 10 V module with variable transitions.
Along with the Agilent 81112A 330 MHz
3.8 V module, which has differential out-
puts and two selectable transition times.
The Agilent 81130A offers a choice of
output modules: the Agilent 81131A
400 MHz, 3.8 V module and the Agilent
81132A 660 MHz, 2.5 V module which has
complementary outputs.
Easy-to-use
Features such as the clear graphical
display, autoset, help, store/recall, preset
TTL/ECL levels, selectable units (such as
current/voltage, width/duty-cycle), and
load compensation ensure a high level of
convenience.
Stimulate the device’s
environment
Today’s devices can require very complex
stimuli. To meet this, the Agilent 81130A
can sequence and loop its memory for
very deep patterns. RZ (return-to-zero),
NRZ (non-return-to- zero) and R1 (return-
to-one) formats are available. Digital
channel addition allows the generation
of signals with two different pulse widths
and delays or of data rates up to
1.32 Gbit/s in one single channel.
Frequency range
The Agilent 81130A is designed and
recommended for an operation in the
frequency range of 170 kHz to 400/
660 MHz. However it can be operated in
the extended range down to 1 kHz.
