Upgrade for arbitrary/function
generators
Generators provide a maximum sampling speed of 250Gsample/s, which is much higher than competing units in the same price bracket.
Upgraded versions of the Tektronix AFG3000 arbitrary/function generators are now available from Thurlby Thandar Instruments The AFG3021B and AFG3022B have an arbitrary waveform memory increased from 64 to 128Kpoint

Compact bench power supply provides 175W
The EX355, new from TTi (Thurlby Thandar Instruments), is a single-output laboratory DC power supply providing an output from 0 to 35V at 0 to 5A.
Programmable power-supplies offer outputs to 1kW
The XHR range of programmable power supplies, offering output ratings up to 1 kW is power-factor corrected for low current draw and reduced generation of input current harmonics.
They also include full system connectivity via USB, GPIB and LAN interfaces, the latter being LXI compliant.
Both generators provide a maximum sampling speed of 250Gsample/s, which is much higher than competing units in the same price bracket.
In function generator mode, this high sampling rate gives very high sine-wave waveform purity, even at high frequencies, and enables pulse waveforms to be defined with high precision.
Maximum sine wave frequency is 25MHz, and full variable rise and fall time pulse generator capability is included.
A large oscilloscope-style display enables a representation of the output waveform to be seen simultaneously with full numeric status information.
The AFG3021B is a single-channel generator with a monochrome display.
The AFG3022B has two channels and includes a colour display.
Both units have a front-panel USB connector for waveform storage using memory sticks.
Users can choose from 12 different standard waveforms.
Arbitrary waveforms can be generated up to 128Kpoint in length at high sampling rates.
On pulse waveforms, leading and trailing edge time can be set independently.
External signals can be connected and added to the output signal.
Dual-channel models can generate two identical or completely different signals.
A wide range of modulations are available including AM, FM, PM, FSK and PWM.
The AFG3021B costs GBP 1100 (plus VAT), while the two-channel AFG3022B costs GBP 1650 (plus VAT).
Both are available ex-stock from TTi.
