The AWG2021 offers 250 MS/s and 256 k
deep memory. As with the entire AWG2000
Series, the graphical user interface allows
on-screen viewing of waveform editing, sim-
plifying “what if” test scenarios by allowing
the easy creation of composite signals.
The standard AWG2021 configuration pro-
vides one 5 V output or a second independ-
ent 5 V output (Opt. 02) each with 12-Bit
vertical resolution. Frequency of channel 2
is also independently programmable.
Option 03 adds a 12-Bit wide differential
ECL digital port which can be used in con-
junction with the marker outputs for data
generation up to 14 Bits wide at up to
250 MHz. Or if you prefer, Option 04 provides
TTL digital levels with up to two 12-Bit,
100 MS/s ports for a total of 28 Bits wide.
The built-in frequency domain (FFT) editor
(Opt. 09) is a perfect addition for customers
performing proprietary or standard modula-
tion simulations, filter design or in physical
layer testing. Real-time waveform sequencing
extends the effective record length output
to over a billion points!
The AWG2021 easily simulates signals
where moderate point definition and long
records are required for simulating very
complex waveform conditions. Direct wave-
form transfer capability makes the AWG2021
the perfect complement to selected
Tektronix oscilloscopes.
