40MHz, 80MHz and 120MHz Dual Channel Function Waveform Generators from B&K Precision.
The BK4060B Series Dual Channel Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generators are capable of producing precise sine, square, triangle, pulse, and arbitrary waveforms. This series combines the cost saving benefits of both DDS and true point-by-point arbitrary architectures to meet a wide range of applications that require high signal fidelity and low jitter arbitrary waveform generation capabilities.
The BK4060B Series arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) architecture can be toggled between conventional DDS or true arbitrary mode. Compared to DDS (Fig. 1), true point-by-point AWG implementation offers improved signal integrity by producing lower jitter and less distortion (Fig. 2). All models are capable of generating 16-bit waveforms up to 300 MSa/s in DDS or 75 MSa/s in true arbitrary mode.
With an easy-to-read colour display and intuitive user interface with numeric keypad, these instruments offer plenty of features including linear / logarithmic sweep, burst mode, and variable DC offset. Generate custom arbitrary waveforms using the application software included, or select from the 196 built-in arbitrary waveforms.

Note: All specifications apply to the unit after a temperature stabilization time of 30 minutes over an ambient temperature range of 23 °C ± 5 °C.
