TG2000

AIM TTi - TG2000

The TG1000/2000 breaks new ground by offering a high quality DDS function generator at a significantly lower price. DDS (direct digital synthesis) is a technique for generating
waveforms digitally using a phase accumulator, a look-up table and a DAC. The accuracy and stability of the resulting waveforms is related to that of the crystal master clock. When correctly engineered, the DDS generator offers not only exceptional accuracy and stability but also high spectral purity, low phase noise and excellent frequency agility.
Unlike some other generators which only provide digital control of frequency, every function is digitally controlled enabling complete instrument set-ups to be stored, or full remote control to be implemented (TG2000 only).
The TG2000 can generate waveforms between 0.001Hz and 20MHz with a resolution of six digits and a one year accuracy better than 10ppm. The TG1000 has a 10MHz limit.
Amplitude is variable between 5mV and 20V pk-pk from a source impedance of 50 Ohms or 600 Ohms.
Unlike many generators, the waveform quality remains excellent over the full amplitude range.
The TG2000 also includes both an RS-232 interface and USB interface.
These interfaces can be used for remote control of all of the instrument functions and for remotely storing instrument set-ups.

Key features:
- 0.001Hz to 10MHz or 20MHz frequency range, 6 digits or 1mHz setting resolution.
- 1ppm stability and better than 10 ppm absolute accuracy for one year.
- Sine, square, triangle, positive pulse and negative pulse waveforms.
- Low distortion, high spectral purity sine waves.
- Internal sweep, linear or logarithmic, full range phase continuous, adjustable marker.
- Modulations modes of gated, AM, FSK and tone switching; built-in trigger generator.
- 5mV to 20V pk-pk output from 50 Ohms or 600 Ohms; plus multi-function auxiliary output.
- Storage for up to nine complete instrument set-ups in non-volatile memory.
- Fully programmable via RS-232 or USB interfaces (TG2000 only).
