| VXI Technology Inc., USA, a designer and manufacturer of high-density modular instruments and signal switching systems for electronics manufacturers and suppliers, has launched a new high-performance precision 50MSa/s arbitrary waveform generator, model VM3640A, that further enhances the company�s VMIP� family of high-density modular instrumentation.
The VM3640A utilises direct digital synthesis to generate a wide variety of user selectable standard waveforms, and up to 120k points of memory is available for user-defined waveforms. Additional features include programmable output filters, and external modulation inputs. Multiple instrument synchronisation can be easily accomplished by internally locking up to three VM3640A instruments in a single VXI slot. The unique sleep mode provides the ability to reduce power consumption while the instrument is not utilised; a valuable power saving feature for portable and remote applications. Calibration is greatly simplified through the use of password protected calibration constants; this eliminates the need for adjustment potentiometers. �This product is ideal for applications requiring standard function generator functionality, multiple device synchronisation, or the need to generate custom-defined waveforms�, commented Mr Tom Sarfi of VXI Technology.
