UTG2000A Series, Function Generators

Function generators are essential tools used to generate a wide range of signal waveforms with varying amplitudes and frequencies. These versatile devices find applications in various fields, including electronics testing, research and development, telecommunications, and education. Function generators are available in different types to meet specific waveform generation needs. These types include analog function generators, direct digital synthesis (DDS) function generators, pulse generators, pulse meters, and radio frequency (RF) generators. Analog function generators utilize analog circuitry to generate waveforms. They offer a cost-effective solution for generating basic waveforms such as sine, square, triangle, and ramp waveforms. DDS function generators, on the other hand, employ digital signal processing techniques to generate precise and complex waveforms with high frequency resolution and stability. Pulse generators are specialized function generators used to generate pulses, which are short-duration signals with specific characteristics. Pulse meters, as the name suggests, are instruments used to measure and analyze pulse characteristics such as pulse width, rise time, and fall time. RF generators are designed specifically for generating radio frequency signals. They cover a wide frequency range, typically ranging from 200 kHz to 70 GHz, and are used in applications requiring RF signal generation, such as wireless communication, radar systems, and RF testing. Function generators can be configured with different numbers of channels, typically 1, 2, or 4 channels, allowing for simultaneous output of multiple waveforms. The output signals of function generators can include sine waves, square waves, triangle waves, ramp waves, pulse waves, and RF waveforms, depending on the capabilities of the specific device. By offering a variety of signal waveforms and customizable parameters such as amplitude, frequency, and duty cycle, function generators provide engineers, technicians, and researchers with precise control over the signals needed for testing, troubleshooting, and experimentation in electronic circuits and systems.
