25 Common Things You Can Do with an Arbitrary Function Generator
An acquisition instrument - usually an oscilloscope or logic analyzer - is probably the first thing that comes to mind when you think about making electronic measurements. But these tools can only make a measurement when they are able to acquire a signal of some kind. And, there are many instances in which no such signal is available unless it is externally provided.
The arbitrary function generator (AFG) serves a wide range of stimulus needs and is actually the prevailing signal generator architecture in the industry today. The AFG offers unique strengths, and, moreover, it offers a way to modulate the signal from internal or external sources, generate frequency sweeps or output signal bursts. In this primer, we show 25 common applications for which an AFG can be used.

Tektronix Signal Generator Software
RFXpress(RFX100)
RFXpress delivers advanced capabilities to synthesize digitally modulated baseband, IF and RF/microwave signals supporting a wide range of modulation schemes. RFXpress simplifies waveform creation.
SerialXpress® (SDX100)
SerialXpress® together with the AWG simplifies the signal creation and jitter simulations to reduce overall development and test time. The software enables the creation of the EXACT waveforms required for thorough and repeatable design validation, margin/characterization and conformance testing. SerialXpress' easy to use graphical user interface allows for a combination of test signals and various impairments including Inter Symbol Interferences (ISI), Duty Cycle Distortion (DCD), Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC), Pre-emphasis and noise.
ArbExpress®
Designers often need to validate their designs under real-world conditions, requiring complex stimulus signals during test. With ArbExpress® software, waveforms can be quickly created and transferred to Tektronix arbitrary waveform and function generators to meet custom stimulus requirements.
