Pulse Generator – Test
Your Device and Not Your
Source

Superior precision pulses with unbeatable timing stability guarantee reproducible tests.
The signal quality and trigger functionality provide everything you need for trigger or
system clock applications.

You can change the timing parameters (delay, frequency, transition time, width, duty
cycle) without dropouts or glitches. This patented, industry-leading feature means
continuous operation without having to reboot or reset your device under test, for
example when you are characterizing a device by sweeping the clock frequency. Apart
from full control of the timing parameters, you can also adjust levels and edges as needed.

Channel 1 pulse setup

Both, the Agilent 81150A and the Agilent 81160A Pulse Function Arbitrary Noise Genera-
tor, are available in a 1 or 2 channel version. On the two channel version, the channels
can be uncoupled, to work independently, or coupled, for example, with a defi ned delay
between them.

Each channel provides Trigger Out, Strobe Out and differential outputs: the basis for many
complex test setups.
