AFG2021 Arbitrary Waveform/Function Generator: Exceptional Performance at an Economical Price
Most electronic devices, circuits, and systems are designed to process some form of signal. These signals can be simple, such as audio frequency signals or clock signals, or more complex, like serial data streams or outputs from airbag sensors during collisions. With a 20 MHz bandwidth, 14-bit resolution, and 250 MS/s sample rate, the AFG2021 Arbitrary Function Generator can create both simple and complex signals at an entry-level price. Featuring 12 standard waveforms, modulation functions, and a built-in noise generator, you can quickly generate the signals needed to thoroughly test your designs.

AFG2021 Arbitrary Waveform/Function Generator Intuitive User Interface
The ease-of-use features prominently seen in the AFG3000 series arbitrary waveform/function generators form the foundation of the AFG2021, enabling quick access to setup and operational functions. Experienced AFG3000 users will find the new AFG2021 particularly easy to set up. The 3.5-inch color TFT screen displays relevant parameters in both graphical and text formats, giving you full confidence in your settings and allowing you to focus on the task at hand. Shortcut buttons and rotary knobs on the front panel provide rapid access to functions and settings.
