In addition to its high performance pulse features, the new PM8571/2A generate a complete array of standard, arbitrary and sequenced waveforms which are necessities in today's laboratories. Versatile Pulse Controls If your application requires more than just a fixed duty cycle or programmable pulse width, then you can modulate and control your leading edge with any standard or arbitrary waveform shape. Combine all of these features with external pulse width control and you have an extremely versatile pulse generation tool. Extremely Accurate Resolution Need to control pulse transitions and placement? Just program each channel to output pulses with linear or fast transitions and control edge placement with 10ps resolution. High Speed Function Generator Care to use the instrument as a function generator? No need to calculate complex waveforms because the PM8571/2A does the work for you. Select the standard waveforms tab and start generating any of ten waveforms that are pre-computed and available for immediate use. Included are: sine, triangle, square, pulse, ramp, sinc and others at frequencies up to 100MHz. 32Vp-p Into Open Circuit While typical pulse/function generators come with 10Vp-p into 500, model PM8571/2A provides an unmatched output of up to 20Vp-p into 500 (32Vp-p into open circuit). On top of that, the PM8571/2A output impedance can be programmed simply either from the front panel or through remote to fit the UUT requirement. Trigger Jitter Many applications require accurate triggering capabilities, with a trigger jitter of less than 100ps the PM series offers unprecedented triggering accuracy enabling users to implement various testing scenarios. Store / Recall (Memory stick/CD/DVD) The new PM series is equipped with a USB host enabling the loading and saving of setups and waveforms from various memory storage devices such as USB stick, CD ROM and DVD. This allows the user to instantly upload the waveforms and setup to the instrument without the need of a PC or Laptop. Emulating Legacy Products Model PM8571/2A implements command emulators to both new and discontinued Pulse and Function Generators sold in the market, providing smooth transition for all the aging automatic test systems that face obsolescence and maintenance problems. The unique feature will allow clients to easily "drop-in" the PM8571/2A in slots vacated by out-of-order Agilent, Fluke, HP, LeCroy, Tabor, Tektronix or Wavetek models, solving TPS programmers' replacement issues.

MODELS PM8571/2A 50MHz Single/Dual Channel Pulse Waveform Generators Waveform Memory Waveform memory is the internal scratchpad where the waveforms reside. Larger memory banks provide for longer waveforms. One can use the entire memory (up to 4M) for a single waveform or split the length to smaller segments. In this case, many waveforms can be stored in the same memory and replayed, one at a time, when recalled to the output. The memory segmentation feature may be combined with a sequence generator that can take different memory segments and link (and loop) them in any order as required for...
