4047B Dual Channel Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator

The 4047B Dual Channel Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator is designed to generate stable and precise waveforms, providing flexible capabilities for generating sine, square, triangle, pulse, and arbitrary waveforms. With fully independent CH1 and CH2 outputs, this generator offers individual control over each channel, allowing variation from 0 to 10 Vpp into 50 ohms, or up to 20 Vpp into an open circuit.

Equipped with dual-channel operation and a variety of advanced modulation and sweep features, the 4047B supports applications that require precise signal generation, signal conditioning, and testing. The generator provides high-fidelity waveform creation through its dual architecture that combines the benefits of DDS (Direct Digital Synthesis) and true point-by-point arbitrary waveform generation.

Key Features and Benefits:

Dual-Channel Operation:
Independent control for each channel with individual on/off buttons.
Rated amplitude (10 Vpp) over the entire frequency range.
Capable of generating sine and square waveforms up to 20 MHz.
Seamless phase synchronization between channels with one-button control.
True Point-by-Point Arbitrary Waveform Generator:
14-bit, 125 MSa/s, 16k-point arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) for complex waveform creation.
Integration with WaveXpress, B&K Precision’s waveform editing software for advanced waveform generation.
Modulation and Sweep Capabilities:
Supports AM, FM, PM, FSK, and PWM internal and external modulation.
