33500B Series waveform generators offer the
following advantages:
Lowest jitter
With 12x better jitter than anything in their class, 33500B Series
waveform generators offer unparalleled edge stability. You can
even use them as a system clock for timing and triggering your other
instruments. With better jitter performance, you can place edges more
accurately, helping you reduce timing errors in your circuit design.
Lowest harmonic distortion
With total harmonic distortion of just 0.04%, the 33500B Series offers
5x better fidelity than other generators. Clean, spurious-free signals
don’t introduce noise or artifacts. See your design’s characteristics, not
the waveform generator’s, in your measurements.
Faster edge times
The 33500B Series’ 8.4-ns rise and fall times are more than twice as
fast as you’ll find in typical waveform generators. You can place edges
with more confidence and more accurately set trigger points. Because
of the faster transition, higher harmonic content is created, which
helps you expand your understanding of your circuit.
Trueform Technology
Signal integrity: Test your devices with condence
that your signal generator is outputting
the signals you expect
Keysight 33500B Series waveform generators offer the lowest total
harmonic distortion (THD) in its class.
Typical DDS generator has a higher noise floor and greater
harmonics.

If your generator is introducing spurious signals or harmonics, you’ll
have a hard time producing reliable designs. To be successful, you
need to test with clean, precise, low-noise signals. Keysight 33500B
Series waveform generators offer the highest signal fidelity so you can
generate the exact waveforms you need for your most challenging
measurements. You can be confident you are seeing your design’s
characteristics, not your waveform generator’s, in your measurements.
