Rigol DG3061A 60MHz Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator

The Rigol DG3061A is a 60 MHz function and arbitrary waveform generator employing Direct Digital Synthesis technology to deliver stable, high-precision signals with low distortion across educational, research, and industrial applications. The instrument generates ten standard waveforms—sine, square, ramp, pulse, noise, sinc, exponential rise, exponential fall, cardiac, and DC—plus user-definable arbitrary waveforms up to 25 MHz. A 300 MSa/s sample rate and 14-bit vertical resolution ensure signal fidelity, while 1M points of waveform memory (512 kpts maximum waveform length) accommodates complex signal designs.
