Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT R8486A #9133161 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT R8486A is a high-performance, highly accurate, dual channel trigger generator ideal for use in both digital and analog test systems. It features two channels with independent function and can generate a wide variety of waveforms, ranging from sine waves, square waves, and pulse waves to user defined waveforms. It also features trigger synchronization and allows range selection up to a 10V sync and unequal duty cycles. The output waveforms are precise and repeatable, with specified accuracy of 0.01%. To ensure precise waveform reproduction, HP R8486A includes both internal and external amplitude and frequency control. Internally, the two channels feature independent amplitude and frequency control and adjustments, and may be set to any desired output level. The external control is provided by an RS-232 port and allows the user to control and read back the amplitude and frequency settings for each channel. The pulse generator has an adjustable, linear ramp phase with variable frequency, adjustable initial phase and variable slope rise/fall times up to 1 milliseconds. It also features separately triggered pulse bursts over variable repeat intervals with random dead times, variable rise/fall times, and variable pulse widths from 1 microsecond to 32 milliseconds. AGILENT R8486A can generate a variety of user defined waveforms, by specifying Harmonic Coefficients 0 through 7 and a periodicity rate up to 50.25 MHz, allowing for the creation of more complex digital and electrical signals. Additionally, it features dual high-current digital outputs (CAN/RS485) to drive external digital line drivers, which enables controlling external devices. Additionally, KEYSIGHT R8486A features over-temperature, over-load, and under voltage protection and a digital fault indicator to indicate any faults or errors. The generator offers both a portable mode and an environment protection mode, making it ideal for use in both laboratories and on site. Overall, R8486A is an advanced, accurate and reliable dual-channel trigger generator designed for use in laboratory and on-site tests of digital and analog systems. It has a wide range of applications in areas like auto-test, semiconductor testing, communications, radar, and lightwave applications. It is sure to provide the accuracy and repeatability required for even the most demanding tests.
