Keysight 81104A Pulse Pattern Generator

Overview

The Keysight 81104A is an 80 MHz pulse pattern generator that builds on the performance of earlier models while maintaining backward compatibility. It supports both single and dual-channel operation with RZ/NRZ pattern capability up to 16 kbit per channel. An NRZ strobe channel provides triggering at arbitrary pattern points or serves as an additional pattern source.

Key Features

• 80 MHz frequency with 10 V output from 50-ohm into 50-ohm load
• RZ/NRZ pattern support up to 16 kbit per channel
• Selectable operating modes: Pulse, burst, or pattern
• Variable transition times for realistic signal simulation
• NRZ strobe channel for arbitrary trigger points
• Single-ended BNC outputs
• Channel-add and 1 kilohm source modes up to approximately 60 MHz
• Combined maximum speed approximately 15 MHz

Applications

• Digital logic circuit testing and verification
• Pattern-based signal generation and simulation
• Oscilloscope and logic analyzer testing
• Design validation at high frequencies

Included Accessories

• Requires one or two Keysight 81105A output modules (depending on single/dual-channel configuration)
