Agilent’s 33500B Series waveform generators with exclusive Trueform signal generation technology offer more capability, fidelity and flexibility than traditional DDS generators. Easily generate the full range of signals you need to test your devices with confidence the signal generator is outputting the signals you expect with 12x less jitter and 5x less harmonic distortion. Take advantage of deep memory (1M points standard and optional 16M points) and waveform sequencing. Two-channel models allow you to use the channels independently or sync them in time, amplitude or both.
Q&A
What we would like to see in the road test?
Applications that take advantage of our Trueform technology. Some examples:
Applications that use multiple waveforms; sine waves, square waves, pulses, or custom waveforms.
Applications requiring low harmonic distortion sine waves
Applications that need pulses or square waves with low jitter.
Applications that need point-by-point arbitrary waveform capability – more accurate user defined waveforms.
Applications requiring deep memory or can take advantage of sequencing to create user defined waveforms.
An application that uses IQ signals or needs to output a data pair. E.g. A dual channel custom waveform
Are there certain application areas we would like folks working on?
We believe that most of the applications requiring Trueform Technology will be in: Research, Design, Product Development, Hardware Qualification, and Design Verification. It is less likely to find these applications in; Service, Installation, or Maintenance.

Testers will be selected on the basis of quality of applications: we expect a full and complete description of why you want to test this particular product.
Testers are required to produce a full, comprehensive and well thought out review within 2 months of receipt of the product.
Failure to provide this review within the above timescale will result in the enrolee being excluded from future Road Tests.
I appreciate the sentiments expressed, but please no more comment is needed as I didn;t take any personally. My judgment making personal circumstances public may have been somewhat clouded by emotion but I standby the intent.
What makes the element 14 community attractive to me is the civilized sharing of comment and opinion mostly of the profession that is also my hobby, but also many other topics.
The communication in the community, from what I can see is conducted in a friendly and courteous manner with the occasional water cooler type debate all in good humor.
The Road test program is an absolutely fantastic opportunity to trial the offered items, however as these trials to be of benefit to the community require a commitment in time and a balance of other commitments. Quick delivery of a review is not always possible. That being said it appears the trust placed by element 14 does appear to be occasionally abused.
My point is the life’s events sometimes impact reviewer and perhaps the management of reviews is best left to the team at Element 14.
From my point of view there is a moral obligation and for me a matter of conscience that if I commit to a task I deliver. I personally do not wish to jeopardize the road-test program.
