The Berkeley Nucleonics (BNC) Model 670C Arbitrary Waveform Generator (AWG) has a new waveform memory module, allowing up to 512 MSa/s of waveform memory in a benchtop research instrument. This doubling of memory means more complex waveforms are readily produced, giving expanded testing opportunities to lab personnel. A large waveform memory allows users to create and store long, complex waveforms that simulate realistic signals or various test scenarios. It also enables longer waveform play time before it repeats.

The Model 670C is also well-suited as a baseband generator. The AWG produces a time-domain signal that can be applied to an external RF modulator. For simple signals where pulses are generated by controlling the carrier envelope, the Model 670C single output can be applied to an amplitude modulator. If the carrier is phase- or frequency-modulated, the Model 670C offers two channels that can be applied to an IQ modulator.

The Model 670C starts at about $12,000 for a dual-channel system. It delivers performance and a feature set unparalleled in the entry-level test equipment field.
