Arbitrary waveform generator (AWG)
 

The AWG-S1 essentially stores current voltage or time characteristics of any kind and can release them on demand. Since the unit is only able to produce voltages of up to 10 VDC, you will need a controlled but separate power supply. This new power supply acts as a power booster and would be adjustable by an analogue voltage signal. It would amplify the signal generated by the AWG S1 to the level needed for testing the respective device.

These settings can be stored via a PC (USB) onto the Arb-Generator. Soon, this function will no longer need any computer assistance.

Benefits of the AWG-S1 include:
  • Low cost
  • Security of investment: compatibility with most regulated PSUs assures universal application
  • Very easy to use: data is entered on a PC via a spreadsheet (e.g. MS Excel™ or OpenOffice) or using a text editor with a semicolon or comma as separator (csv format)
  • Can run independently of PC
  • Future-proof through firmware update function
  • Freely selectable output voltage range for the external PSU from 0 to ~ 10 VDC. Thus 0-5, 1-6, 0-10 V DC or similar can be generated without problems
  • Compact dimensions and low weight for portability
  • Parallel start function for multiple AWG S1 devices
  • Quick to set up and dismantle with plug connectors
  • During data transfer between PC and AWG-S1, power is obtained via the USB interface
  • Robust construction with high-quality aluminum enclosure
  • Interchangeable storage medium (micro SD card)
  • Low power consumption thanks to a 'green power' / ‘energy star’ mains adapter and an automatic sleep function when unit is not being used
