T3AFG Function / Arbitrary Waveform
Generator Data Sheet
Debug with Confidence
5 MHz – 120 MHz
Teledyne Test Tools T3AFG range of generators are
a series of single and dual-channel function/arbitrary
waveform generators with specifications of up to 120 MHz
maximum bandwidth, 1.2GSa/s maximum sampling
rate and 14 or 16-bit vertical resolution. The proprietary
TrueArb & EasyPulse techniques used on the higher
bandwidth models helps to solve the weaknesses inherent
in traditional DDS generators when generating arbitrary,
square and pulse waveforms. With advantages above the
T3AFG 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.
Tools for Improved Debugging
Deep Memory – up to 8 Mpts/Ch on 40 MHz to
120 MHz models. 16 kpts on 5 MHz and 10 MHz
models.
Generate complex arbitrary waveforms.
Wide Range of Modulation Types – AM, DSB-AM,
FM, PM, FSK, ASK, PWM, Sweep, Burst, and PSK on
2 Ch models.
Quickly set up modulated waveforms.
High Resolution – 14 Bit on 5 MHz and 10 MHz
models, 16 bit on 40 MHz to 120 MHz models.
Generate waveforms with low noise and spurious
signal content.

T3AFG FUNCTION / ARBITRARY WAVEFORM GENERATOR
The T3AFG range of Function / Arbitrary
Waveform Generators support a wide
range of modulation types.
Burst mode supports ‘N Cycle’ and
‘Gated’ modes with the Burst source
being configured as ‘Internal’, ‘External’
or ‘Manual’.
Sweep mode supports ‘Linear’ and ‘Log’
sweep, with ‘Up’ and ‘Down’ direction,
and Sweep source being configured as
‘Internal’, ‘External’ or ‘Manual’.
