SDG6052X DDS Waveform Generator 500MHz 2 Channels
Product Overview
SIGLENT’s SDG6000X is a series of dual-channel Pulse/ Arbitrary Waveform Generators that feature up to 500 MHz bandwidth, a maximum sample rate of 2.4 GSa/s and 16-bit vertical resolution. They also include proprietary TrueArb & EasyPulse technology that help to solve the weaknesses inherent in traditional DDS generators when generating arbitrary, square and pulse waveforms. In addition, the SDG6000X is a multi-function device which can generate Noise, IQ signals and PRBS patterns. These features enable the SDG6000X to provide a variety of high fidelity and low jitter signals, meeting the growing requirements of complex and intensive applications.

Characteristics
Continuous Wave
Up to 500 MHz continuous sine wave
Pulse
Adjustable Pulse Width
The pulse width can be fine-tuned to the minimum of 3.3 ns with an adjustment step as small as 100 ps, at any frequency.
Adjustable Edge
The rise/fall times can be set independently to the minimum of 1 ns at any frequency with a minimum adjustment step as small as 100 ps
Low Jitter
When a Square/Pulse waveform is generated by traditional DDS, there can be additional jitter if the sampling rate is not an integerrelated
multiple of the output frequency. EasyPulse technology successfully overcomes this weakness in DDS designs and helps to produce low
jitter Square/Pulse waveforms.
Point by Point Output
TrueArb generates arbitrary waveforms point-by-point. It never skips any point so that it can reconstruct all the details of the waveform,
as defined. Two interpolation modes are available: linear and zero-order hold.
Arbitrary Waveform Software EasyWave
EasyWave is an arbitrary waveform software platform that supports waveform creation and editing. It features manual drawing,
as-well as line, equation, and coordinate editing modes. It is also a convenient way for users to edit their own arbitrary waveforms.
Noise
Gaussian noise with bandwidth up to 500 MHz. The repetition period is more than 100 years, and the bandwidth is adjustable.
Wideband Gaussian noise can be easily added to other waveforms to simulate real world scenarios in which the signal contains
a large degree of noise.
IQ (optional)
The SDG6000X supports popular modulation types such as ASK, FSK, PSK, and QAM. Proprietary resampling technology
provides excellent EVM performance at arbitrary symbol rates between 250 Symb/s - 37.5 MSymb/s. Built-in digital
quadrature modulator provides the possibility to generate IQ signals from baseband to 500 MHz intermediate frequency.
IQ waveforms can be generated by the PC software EasyIQ.
PRBS
PRBS3 ~ PRBS32 with finely adjustable 10-6 bps - 300 Mbps bit rate and 1 ns - 1 us edge.
Preset common logic levels such as TTL, LVCMOS, LVPECL and LVDS. An added differential mode provides an
easy way to generate differential signals using the both channels.
Large Signals at High Frequencies
Dual-channel, 20 Vpp amplitude sine wave guaranteed at up to 40 MHz
Small Signals
Low noise floor, improves signal-to-noise ratio
Modulation
Plenty of modulation types, such as AM, FM, PM, FSK, ASK, PSK, DSBAM, PWM are supported. The modulation
source can be configured as “Internal” or “External”.
Sweep and Burst
Sweep modes include “Linear” and “Log”. Burst modes includes “N cycle” and “Gated”. Both Sweep and Burst can be
triggered by “Internal”, “External” or “Manual” source
Waveform Combining
The waveform combining function superimposes CH1 and CH2 waveforms internally and provides the combined
waveform to a user-selected output. Easily combine basic waveforms, random noise, modulation signals,
sweep signals, burst signals, EasyPulse waveforms and TrueArb waveforms
Harmonics Function
Harmonics function gives you the ability to add higher-order elements to your signal.
Two Dual-channel Operation Mode
"Phase-Locked" mode automatically aligns the phases of each output. While "Independent" mode permit
the two channels to be used as two independent generators. Independent mode also smoothes parameter
(frequency, amplitude) changes made to an active channel
Frequency Counter
8-digit hardware frequency counter with statistics function and input range of 0.1 Hz - 400 MHz
Optional Configurations
SPA1010 10W Power Amplifier
ATT-20dB 20 dB Attenuator
USB-GPIB USB-GPIB Adapter
SDG-6000X-IQ IQ Generator Module
