Featuring high sampling rates, deep memory, and advanced EasyPulse and TrueArb technologies, the SDG3000X delivers precise, low-jitter signal generation for complex test scenarios. Designed for both flexibility and performance, it addresses the need for reliable instrumentation in today’s evolving test environments.
September 25(th)—SIGLENT launches the next-generation SDG3000X Series Arbitrary Waveform Generator. Designed for high fidelity and high precision signal generation, SDG3000X series offers up to 200 MHz output frequency, 40 Mpts arbitrary waveform length per channel, 16-bit vertical resolution and a maximum sampling rate of 1.2 GSa/s. Featuring a 7-inch capacitive touchscreen, an intuitive interface, and robust signal generation capabilities, the SDG3000X is well-suited for applications in communications, semiconductors, new energy technologies, and academic research.
High-Fidelity Signal Generation and Precision Pulse Output
The SDG3000X incorporates EasyPulse and TrueArb technologies to set a new benchmark for signal generation accuracy, which significantly improve upon the limitations of traditional DDS (Direct Digital Synthesis) waveform generation.
High precision pulse generation, flexible adjustment of edge pulse width
EasyPulse is optimized for pulse signal generation. It is capable of producing pulses as narrow as 8 ns with fast rising/falling edges that remain stable across frequency variations. It allows for wide-ranging, fine-grained adjustments of edge timing and pulse width, making it ideal tool for generating high-precision pulse signals.
Advanced Arbitrary and Complex Signal Generation
With 196 built-in arbitrary waveforms and a memory depth of up to 40 Mpts per channel, the SDG3000X provides the capacity to store and accurately reproduce complex signals. It also features a flexible sequence mode, allowing users to define playback order and loop counts for each waveform segment—ideal for custom and repetitive test scenarios.
Flexible signal generation, covering complex test requirements
It supports PRBS signal output up to 120 Mbps, baseband and IF IQ signal generation with symbol rates from 250 to 50 MSymb/s, and a wide range of modulation types including AM, DSB-SC, FM, PM, FSK, ASK, PSK, and PWM. With built-in Sweep and Burst modes, the SDG3000X delivers comprehensive support across a variety of test environments—from education and R&D to industrial power device testing.
Double-Pulse Testing for Power Semiconductors
Double-pulse testing is critical in analyzing the dynamic behavior of power semiconductor devices such as IGBTs and SiC MOSFETs, particularly for evaluating switching losses and conduction characteristics. The SDG3000X offers an ideal platform for this application.
With channel tracking and phase synchronization, users can precisely control pulse widths and timing intervals to simulate realistic switching behavior. Combined with remote control via USB/LAN, and oscilloscope synchronization, the SDG3000X simplifies the creation of automated test systems—enhancing both testing efficiency and data reliability.
Intelligent User Experience
Equipped with a 7-inch touchscreen, the SDG3000X allows intuitive parameter settings and signal viewing. It supports MATLAB and Python script import and oscilloscope linkage for automatic calibration. A built-in high-precision frequency counter, along with multiple communication interfaces such as LAN, USB, and GPIB, and a built-in WebServer, ensures easy remote access and synchronization across multiple devices—streamlining workflows and boosting productivity.
SIGLENT Expands RF Test Capabilities with the New SSG6082A-V Vector Signal Generator
With the ongoing advancement of wireless communication, the introduction of new mobile network standards, and the growing adoption of IoT and communication technologies, the demand for high-performance RF solutions continues to rise. Developers and engineers face increasingly stringent requirements, particularly in generating complex modulated signals that are essential for modern communication and IoT applications. To meet these growing demands, Siglent is expanding its portfolio with a new high-performance vector signal generator.
On March 12, 2025, SIGLENT introduced the SSG6082A-V Vector Signal Generator, a high-performance instrument with an output frequency range of 9 kHz to 8 GHz and a 500 MHz bandwidth IQ baseband source, significantly enhancing its portfolio of vector signal solutions. Concurrently, a firmware update for the PC Software SigIQPro will be released in synchronization with the SSG6082A-V, introducing expanded support for WiFi, 5G NR, LTE, and other mainstream communication protocols to streamline the generation of sophisticated signals.
Expanded Output Frequency and Power Range
With a maximum frequency of 8 GHz and a peak output level of 30 dBm for CW signals, the new generator serves as both a high-precision RF source and a carrier for modulated signals. Its wide frequency and power range meet the demanding testing requirements of many modern communication systems.
Wider Modulation Bandwidth and Superior Signal Quality
As data exchange rates between devices continue to rise, broadband communication technologies are becoming increasingly prevalent. The SSG6082A-V offers a modulation bandwidth of up to 1 GHz and excellent in-band response, thanks to precise in-factory calibration, making it suitable for a wide range of communication test scenarios.
The SSG6000A-V series features ultra-low phase noise, reaching -132 dBc/Hz at a 10 kHz offset for a 1 GHz signal. Higher spectral purity reduces test errors, enhancing the accuracy and reliability of measurement results. In wireless communication, low phase noise signals help minimize bit error rates (BER), improving communication stability and reliability.
Phase noise at different carrier frequencies
For modulated signals, the SSG6082A-V delivers an excellent adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR), ensuring high-quality signal generation while maintaining the target output power. This minimizes neighboring channel interference during multi-channel testing, enabling more accurate simulation of real-world communication environments.
5G NR Test Mode TM1.1 100M bandwidth ACPR
More Accurate Transmitter Simulation
The SSG6082A-V supports automatic amplitude, frequency, and phase compensation based on the S2P file of the test system. This compensation minimizes phase fluctuations and phase noise while flattening the signal amplitude across the entire frequency range, ensuring consistent signal levels at different frequencies. With enhanced system compatibility, the SSG6082A-V accommodates a broader range of applications, delivering precise and efficient test system performance.
Signal Pre-Distortion Capabilities
Outlook: More Protocols with SigIQPro and Comprehensive Testing Capabilities
As mobile devices continue to evolve with enhanced functionality, the demand for higher data rates and wider coverage is driving the need for more complex signal generation to validate device performance. SigIQPro is an essential tool for communication testing, designed to generate high-quality, complex modulated and protocol signals. The upcoming upgrade of SigIQPro, synchronized for release with the SSG6082A-V, will expand its capabilities to include Bluetooth, IoT, GSM/EDGE, WCDMA/HSPA+, LTE FDD/TDD, and 5G NR signal generation, along with broadband signals such as WLAN 802.11 b/g/a/n/ac/ax/be and OFDM.
