The Keysight 33509B is a single-channel, 20 MHz Trueform waveform generator engineered for precision signal generation in research, development, and manufacturing environments. Built on Keysight’s proprietary Trueform technology, it combines Direct Digital Synthesis with point-by-point architecture to deliver superior signal fidelity—achieving 5× lower harmonic distortion and 10× less pulse jitter than conventional DDS generators. The result is higher accuracy, improved measurement confidence, and more reliable test results across demanding applications.
