Output characteristics
Isolation
Outputs Connector shells for channel output(s), Sync, and Mod In are connected
together but isolated from the instrument’s chassis. Maximum
allowable voltage on isolated connector shells is ±42 Vpk
Signal output
Output impedance (nom) 50 Ω
On, off, inverted User-selectable for each channel
Voltage limit User-definable V
MAX
and V
MIN
limits
Overload protection Output turns off automatically when an overload is applied
Instrument will tolerate a short-circuit to ground indefinitely

Frequency accuracy
Standard frequency reference (spec)
1 year, 23° C ± 5° C ±1 ppm of setting ± 15 pHz
1 year, 0° C to 55° C ±2 ppm of setting ± 15 pHz

1 year, 0° C to 55° C ±0.1 ppm of setting ± 15 pHz
Arbitrary waveform characteristics, continued
Waveform sequencing (Available only on 33511B/12B/21B/22B)
Operation Individual arbitrary waveforms (segments) can be combined into user-defined lists (sequences)
to form longer, more complex waveforms. Each sequence step specifies whether to repeat
the associated segment a certain number of times, to repeat it indefinitely, to repeat it until a
Trigger event occurs, or to stop and wait for a Trigger event. Additionally, the behavior of the
Sync output can be specified in each step.
To improve throughput, up to 32 sequences totalling up to 1,024 segments can be pre-loaded
into volatile memory.
Segment length 8 Sa to 1 MSa per channel (16 MSa with Option MEM) in increments of 1 sample
Sequence length 1 to 512 steps
Segment repeat count 1 to 1x10
