General Information
The AWG modules generate arbitrary CW waveforms with sampling
rates up to
2 Gsps for the AWG272,
4 Gsps for the AWG452/472,
8 Gsps for the AWG801/872.
The AWG can be controlled by a PC or can work alone with pre-stored waveforms. The sole RF input is the single-ended clock source CKIP, which can be operated above 2.0 GHz with minimum power of 0 dBm. The RF outputs of the module consist of a pair of differential analog outputs, OUTP and OUTN, which have 50-ohm back termination. The module accepts a high-speed trigger TRIG and generates a programmable synchronization output SYNC0 and three marker signals MARKER1/2/3.
Note: Some modules may label SMA connectors differently (i.e. OUTP = P = OP; CKIP = CK; etc...).
