Agilent N6031A Arbitrary Waveform Generator
The N6031A Arbitrary Waveform Generator by Agilent is a dual channel wideband signal source module. It is a 3U CompactPCI instrument that operates at 1.25 GS/sec/per channel. This module provides 10 bit vertical resolution for precise digital to analog conversion. This N6031A provides two independent channels with baseband or IF outputs. Its each channel supports single ended and differential output configurations. The unit’s modulation bandwidth reaches 500 MHz per channel with 1 GHz IQ bandwidth. The internal architecture supports radar and communication waveform generation applications.
The harmonic distortion for the Arbitrary Waveform Generator is below -50 dBc. Its non-harmonic spurious performance remains below -65 dBc across 1 kHz to 500 MHz. The noise floor measures below -150 dBc/Hz across channel bandwidth. The internal sample clock of the N6031A operates at fixed 1.25 GS/sec, while its external clock input supports rates from 100 MS/sec to 1.25 GS/sec. External clock power range spans -15 dBm to +5 dBm. Its phase noise performance reaches -150 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset. Its capacity provides 8 MS/channel with optional 16 MS expansion, while its minimum waveform length equals 128 samples with granularity of 8 samples. Its sequencer supports up to 32768 unique segments per channel. Its total unique waveform segments in sequences reach 16384 entries.
The Agilent N6031A supports five trigger inputs including software trigger over PCI backplane. Its trigger timing resolution equals clock divided by eight with 6.4 ns resolution. The unit’s trigger uncertainty remains below 50 ps under full rate operation. Its marker outputs provide 3.3 V CMOS levels with programmable polarity. The unit’s analog outputs use SMA female connectors with nominal 50 ohm impedance. Its uncorrected passband flatness remains within 1 dB to 200 MHz, while group delay variation remains within 500 ps to 200 MHz. Its reconstruction filters include 250 MHz and 500 MHz elliptical implementations. The generator operates in the temperature range from 0 to 55 °C. Its power consumption is 43.2 W. Its electromagnetic compatibility meets IEC 61326 standards with proper chassis configuration and this Arbitrary Waveform Generator stores user data in volatile memory.
