    The Keysight M8199A 256 GSa/s Arbitrary Waveform Generator features a digital-to-analog converter application-specific integrated circuit (DAC-ASIC) that translates memory data into an analog signal. The package avoids soldering sensitive radio frequency, by placing an RF connector at the DAC-ASIC, plus amplifier technology to deliver high-speed and -quality output signals with a smooth frequency roll-off.

    Judge’s comment: “This truly leading-edge 256 GSa/s AWG will surely be on the wish list of many leading-edge engineers and researchers."
