The 33600A Series waveform generators offer the common signals and
features you expect, such as modulation, sweep and burst. However,
it also offers features that give you the capabilities and flexibility you
need to get your job done quickly, no matter how complex. An intui-
tive front-panel user interface, for example, can be quickly and easily
relearned when your attention has been focused elsewhere. Built-in
LAN, USB and optional GPIB interfaces allow you to easily control your
instruments or transfer waveforms to your instrument. And that’s just
the beginn
ing.
The 33600A Series waveform generators offer a variety of capabilities
you can’t find anywhere else—capabilities designed to help you
accelerate your testing and get your project wrapped up faster:
Waveform summing and combining capability
Easily add noise to your signal for margin and distortion testing
using only a single channel. You can create dual-tone
multifrequency signals without a dual-channel generator,
which means you can preserve your budget for other test
needs. On a two-channel model, you can sum and combine
up to four signals.
Variable-bandwidth noise
You can adjust the bandwidth of the built-in noise generator to
control the frequency content of your signal. Apply just the frequency
stimulus you need so you concentrate the energy of your waveform
in frequency bands-of-interest.

Unmatched capabilities for generating a full range
of signals for the most demanding requirements
The images at right show
an approximate 10 dB increase
in amplitude at 50 kHz when
the bandwidth is reduced 10x.
Note how the signal energy
is increased in the frequen-
cies-of-interest when the
bandwidth is reduced, instead
of being spread over a very
wide bandwidth with lower
amplitude at all frequencies.
