Power amp claims unmatched signal purity
The Model 9250 is the latest wideband power amplifier from Tabor Electronics.
New-wave generators boast old-wave prices
The Wonder Wave Series of arbitrary waveform generators breaks new ground in sample clock speeds, memory and instrument control.
The WW1281 single/differential channel frequency agile waveform generator combines industry-leading 1.2Gsample/s sample clock performance, frequency agility and modulation capability in a stand-alone package.
Equipped with a large waveform memory (8Mword standard, 16Mword optional), and sequence generator with five different advanced modes, there is virtually no waveform that cannot be output.
The 1281's unique design allows creation of very large, complex waveforms up to 500MHz with 12bit of resolution, while retaining exceptional flatness and noise performance.

Bridging the gap
Between low-end affordable arbitrary function generators and high-end expensive arbitrary waveform generators, Ron Glazer argues that Tabor's Wonder Wave Series offers the best of both worlds.
All this comes in a compact half-rack 2U box at an affordable price.
Model WW1281 is the top-of-the-line in the recently introduced Wonder Wave Series.
Ranging from 50Msample/s to 1.2Gsample/s, featuring seven different models, the Wonder Wave Series is designed to perform a wide range of applications from the simplest standard functions to the most complex creation of extended and challenging waveforms.
Common to all models in the series is the unique front panel design with 3.5in LCD colour user-friendly display, and compact, lightweight (3.5kg) all-metal packaging.
LAN, USB and GPIB interfaces sharing similar SCPI command set, large memory, memory management, digital outputs, various modulation and multi-instruments synchronisation to create compact multi-channel systems for I and Q modulation and other applications.
"The main challenge was to combine multiple and state-of-the-art functionality into a single product while keeping sise and price at minimum", said Moti Glazer, CEO of Tabor Electronics.
Ron Glazer, Business Development Manager added: "The combination of features in the Model 1281 allows addressing applications in numerous market segments and supporting test stimulus demands of the information age".
"Thanks to leading-edge technology and integration, the same instrument can be used on the bench or in GPIB, USB, LAN, or LXI systems with the capability to generate standard, arbitrary, sequenced, digital and analogue modulation and complex pulse waveforms, each of which performs as a single, stand-alone instrument".
"The Test and Measurement World Best in Test awards are a 16 year tradition of recognising the best in test, measurement and inspections products".
"We are proud to recognise Tabor's achievement with a 2006 honourable mention for the WW1281", said Russ Pratt, Publisher, TMW.
