Why Choose the JDS8060 / JDS8080?
- Dual Independent Channels: Both channels can simultaneously output identical or completely different waveforms. All parameters are independently adjustable, with a continuously tunable phase difference of 0°–359.99° between channels.
- Ultra-High Sampling Rate: At 275 MSa/s, the generator captures more waveform data per unit time, producing exceptionally accurate and smooth waveform representations.
- 14-Bit Vertical Resolution: Delivers incredibly fine waveform detail, giving you a level of precision that lower-resolution generators simply can't match.
- Wide Sine Wave Frequency Range: JDS8060 outputs 1 nHz–60 MHz; JDS8080 extends up to 80 MHz — covering an enormous range of applications.
- Rich Waveform Library: Choose from sine, square, pulse, triangle, rising/falling ramp, CMOS, DC level, half/full wave, positive step, inverse staircase, exponential rise/fall, Lorentz pulse, multisonic, random noise, trapezoidal pulse, Sinker pulse, plus 160 built-in arbitrary waveforms and support for 99 user-defined custom waveforms.
- Comprehensive Modulation Modes: Supports AM, FM, PM, ASK, FSK, PSK, and PWM modulation for advanced signal testing and communication simulation.
- VCO (Voltage-Controlled Oscillator) Function: Control output frequency, amplitude, and duty cycle via an external analog voltage signal — ideal for industrial debugging workflows.
- Flexible Sweep Modes: Sweep frequency, amplitude, or duty cycle in either linear or logarithmic mode to analyze system response efficiently.
- Burst / Trigger Modes: Manual burst, CH2 burst, external AC/DC burst triggering for precise pulse train generation.
- Precise Pulse Control: Pulse width range 0.020 µs–4 s; pulse period range 0.02 µs–40 s. Digitally adjust pulse width and cycle time with no jitter output.
- Built-in Frequency Counter & Measurement: Measure frequency, positive/negative pulse width, period, and duty cycle. Counter range: 0–4,294,967,295.
