Preface
This manual describes the installation and operation of Model 685 using the Simple AFG software. Basic
operations and concepts are presented in this manual.
The easiest touch screen display interface allows to create waveforms scenarios, only in few screen
touches.
The Model 685 series offers premium signal integrity thanks to the 16 bit resolution DAC.
For single ended Models the output signal can reach up to 5 Volts pk-pk into 50 Ohm and a total voltage
window of 10 Volts into 50 Ohm with an hardware offset of ±2.5 Volts into 50 Ohm.
For differential Models the output signal can reach up to 3 Volts pk-pk into 100 Ohm with a common mode
voltage of ±2 Volts into 50 Ohm.
The Model 685 can generate signals up to 2 GHz. The software architecture provides the possibility to
easily generate predefined waveforms and modulated signals or to load an arbitrary waveform from a
user defined file.
