We need a function generator (FG) to recommend to customers for
various experiments. We were reselling the protek 8003, but I found
out today that protek is no more! So I’m back searching.
We’d like to just have one function generator that could ‘cover’ a few
different experiments.
For one we need Sine waves from 0.5 to 2 Hz, with at least 10mHz
resolution.
(1 mHz would be nicer.) (This seems to eliminate a lot of the low end
FG’s out there.)
The other function would be sine wave sweeps and bursts, frequencies
from hundreds of kHz to 5 MHz at a minimum.
Oh price, The protek was selling for ~$300. Something near that
would be nice. lets say no more than $1k.
So I’ve been through the usual suspects, Rigol, B&K, Instek, Fluke.
Tek, Agilent.
The only one that fits the bill is the Rigol DG1022. I seem to recall
someone having issues trying to program it. I don’t really need that
function for our customers. But it would be nice for my own use.
Any idea if Rigol has fixed that?
Any other candidates?
Thanks
