Description


Siglent SDG8004A 4 Channel, 5 GHz, 10 GSa/s Interpolation Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator

The Siglent SDG8004A Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator, part of the Siglent SDG8000A Series, is a high-performance function/arbitrary waveform generator designed for demanding communication, industrial, and scientific research applications. Featuring 4 analogue output channels, 16-bit vertical resolution, and a maximum interpolated sampling rate of 10 GSa/s (12 GSa/s Optional), the SDG8000A Series delivers exceptional waveform fidelity with output frequencies of up to 5 GHz and modulation bandwidths reaching 2 GHz.

With up to 4 Gpts waveform memory per channel, the series enables extended playback times without compromising signal bandwidth or waveform quality. Integrated SigIQPro functionality allows the generation of modern communication signals, including Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and LTE, making it ideal for advanced RF and wireless development environments.

The SDG8000A Series also supports high-speed serial code (Hss) output, complex multi-layer sequence waveform generation, and advanced functions such as multipulse, multitone, and chirp generation, providing a versatile solution for a broad range of complex test and measurement requirements.

Key Features
  • 2/4 channels, maximum output frequency of 4 GHz (10 GSa/s sampling rate) or 5 GHz (12 GSa/s sampling rate)
  • 16-bit vertical resolution

Applications
  • High-Speed Pulse and Step Signal Testing: Generation of ultra-fast rise-time pulses and step signals for applications such as radar systems, LiDAR, and semiconductor device characterisation (e.g., switching behaviour of diodes and transistors).
  • High-Speed Serial Bus Testing: With optional serial data generation software, the instrument can generate PCIe and other high-speed serial data patterns for compliance testing, bit error rate (BER) testing, and eye diagram analysis.
  • Mid- to Low-Frequency Communication Signal Generation: Supports vector signal generation within a 2 GHz modulation bandwidth, including 5G NR, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and other communication standards, for carrier frequencies up to 5 GHz (via baseband or IF generation).
  • Multi-Instrument Synchronisation: Enables precise timing synchronisation between transmitters, receivers, oscilloscopes, and data acquisition systems with flexible marker outputs.
  • Custom Arbitrary Waveform Generation: Supports user-defined complex waveforms, including modulation signals, device emulation signals, and noise patterns for advanced system design and validation.

  • Use DC modes when the signal includes DC or low-frequency components.

  • Choose DC-HBW for higher bandwidth, and DC-AMP for higher amplitude.

  • Use AC modes for RF signals without DC content.

  • Choose AC-DIR for best signal fidelity, and AC-AMP for higher output amplitude.
