Description

Advanced Multi-Channel RF Waveform Generation

The Tabor P2588D RF AWG is a high-performance arbitrary waveform generator designed for engineers and researchers requiring precision multi-channel RF signal generation. With eight independent output channels and a 2.5GS/s sampling rate, it delivers accurate, synchronized waveforms for demanding applications such as radar simulation, Electronic Warfare, and next-generation wireless communications. Its 16-bit resolution ensures high fidelity, providing precise representation of complex signals for laboratory and field testing.

Modular Design and Scalability

Built on the PXI Express platform, the P2588D RF AWG offers a modular, scalable architecture that allows users to expand from a single module to hundreds of synchronized channels. Its compact high-density design minimizes footprint while maintaining phase coherence and timing accuracy, making it ideal for multi-antenna MIMO testing, quantum computing research, and phased-array radar systems.

Real-Time Feedback and Intelligent Sequencing

The P2588D features an integrated FPGA-based feedback system that fundamentally changes how waveforms are generated. By combining the Arbitrary Waveform Generator (DAC) and optional digitizer (ADC) into a single FPGA-controlled unit, it reduces latency, allowing instant conditional waveform generation. This is critical for closed-loop EW systems, adaptive radar, and quantum control experiments.

Task-driven non-linear waveform sequencing enables the P2588D to respond intelligently to dynamic inputs. Rather than linear playback, the system can jump between waveform segments based on real-time feedback, enabling coherent signal responses. Programmable via Python, MATLAB, C, or LabVIEW, this capability ensures flexible integration into advanced automated testing setups.
