M8100 Series Arbitrary Waveform Generators Getting Started Guide 23
Introduction 1
M8199A Arbitrary Waveform Generator
Keysight’s M8199A 128/256 GSa/s Arbitrary Waveform Generator delivers
twice the sampling rate, coupled with 50 percent more analog bandwidth
and increased ENOB compared to legacy AWG products. This combination
of industry-leading specifications enables research engineers to quickly
and accurately develop advanced components for terabit transmission
systems.
The M8199A is a powerful arbitrary waveform generator, which enables
signal generation of up to 140 GBd with outstanding signal quality in a
2-slot AXIe module. Whether testing the discrete components of optical
coherent systems or path-finding for terabit transmission in the
next-generation data center, the M8199A is ideal for addressing the need
for high sample rates and high analog bandwidth.
The key benefits of using the M8199A Arbitrary Waveform Generator are:
• Four channels at 128 GSa/s or 2 channels 256 GSa/s with up to 70 GHz
nominal analog bandwidth
• Provides research engineers a high-performance signal source for
arbitrary signals, enabling development of designs up to 140 GBd.
• Delivers twice the sampling rate of any AWG, coupled with at least 50
percent higher analog bandwidth. As a result, research engineers can
quickly develop advanced components for terabit transmission systems
• Integrated, ready-to-use instrument
• Operates with well-known software, like MATLAB or Keysight IQTools
and SCPI programming interface based on M8070B
• High flexibility with upgrade options from 2 channels at 128 GSa/s to 4
channels at 256 GSa/s
M8199A Applications
• Coherent Optical Applications - The M8199A is the ideal solution to test
various optical systems from discrete components like optical power
amplifiers to more complex dual polarization systems such as optical
modulators or optical receivers. Even for tests of signal processor ASICs
or algorithm, the M8199A is an excellent signal source to provide
stressed signals to these devices.
• Multi-Level/Multi-Channel Digital Signals - The M8199A is the right
tool that provides the flexibility for advanced research on improved and
more advanced modulation formats to boost transmission rates to the
next level. Interleaving can boost the sample rate to 256 GSa/s,
