Product Overview

SIGLENT’s SDG2000X is a series of dual-channel function/arbitrary waveform generators with specifications of up to 120 MHz maximum bandwidth, 1.2 GSa/s sampling rate and 16-bit vertical resolution. The proprietary TrueArb & EasyPulse techniques help to solve the weaknesses inherent in traditional DDS generators when generating arbitrary, square and pulse waveforms. With advantages above, SDG2000X waveform generators can provide users with a variety of high fidelity and low jitter signals, which can meet the growing requirements of complex and extensive applications.

Key Features

  • Innovative EasyPulse technology, capable of generating lower jitter Square or Pulse waveforms, brings a wide range and extremely
    high precision in pulse width and rise/fall times adjustment
  • Plenty of analog and digital modulation types: AM, DSB-AM, FM, PM, PSK, FSK, ASK and PWM
  • Sweep and Burst function, Harmonics mode supported
  • High precision Frequency Counter
  • Standard interfaces: USB Device, USB Host, LAN (VXI-11), and GPIB (optional)
  • 4.3” touchscreen display for easier operation

We use function generators in the lab for precise testing and complex functions. The SDG2000X performs exceptionally well at a fraction of the cost of the Agilent systems we also use. Any time we’ve had questions customer service has gone above and beyond to support our needs. Great product and fantastic service. We’ve outfitted multiple benches with the SDG and will be buying more.

Product Characteristics

TrueArb Technology Architecture View more

TrueArb Technology Architecture

TrueArb Technology Architecture

With SIGLENT’s TrueArb technology, the generator retains the advantages of DDS technology while overcoming the serious weaknesses of DDS jitter and distortion. Because TrueArb technology generates arbitrary waveform in a point-by-point fashion, every data point is used to generate the output signal which has been stored in memory. Date points will not missed or repeated and arbitrary waveforms possess very low jitter (< 150ps).

EasyPulse Technology

EasyPulse Technology

When a Square/Pulse waveform is generated by DDS, there will be a one-clock-jitter if the sampling rate is not an integer-related multiple of the output frequency. SDG2000X EasyPulse technology successfully overcomes this weakness in DDS designs and helps to produce low jitter Square/Pulse waveforms.

Resolver Simulation using an Arbitrary Waveform Generator

Download PDF A resolver is an electromagnetic sensor that is used to determine the mechanical angle and velocity of a shaft or axle. They are often used in automotive applications (cam/crankshaft position), aeronautics (flap position), as well as servos and industrial applications. When designing, testing, or troubleshooting systems that use resolvers, it can be worthwhile … Continued

Interpolated DDS Technique in SDG2000X

Download PDF Preface As can be seen in the data sheet for Siglent’s SDG2000X arbitrary waveform generator series, the sampling rate specification (1.2 GSa/s) is followed by a note of “4X Interpolation”. This may be confusing to some customers, even some experienced users of function generators. This white paper is intended to explain this specification … Continued
