Introduction Keysight Technologies, Inc. pulse generators are focused on high signal integrity
to provide clear, stable and repetitive signals. This is required for all kinds of
DUT development in R&D, followed by dedicated stress test with distorted and
real world signals. A key and unique feature of the Keysight 81150A and 81160A
Pulse Function Arbitrary Noise Generators is to combine two independent output
channels. There are two ways of doing this. Either couple the channels or add
the channels together.
Required Equipment for this Lab:
1. 1x Keysight Pulse Function Arbitrary Noise Generator with two output
channels (81150A/81160A incl. option 002)
2. 1x Keysight Oscilloscope DSO or MSO6104A incl. 4x BNC cables
How to hook up the instruments:
1. Connect ‘OUTPUT 1’ (81150A and 81160A) to channel 1 (scope)
2. Connect ‘OUTPUT 2’ (81150A and 81160A) to channel 2 (scope)
3. Connect ‘STROBE OUT 2’ (81150A), ‘Sync Out B’ (81160A) to channel 3 (scope)
4. Connect ‘TRIGGER OUT 2’ (81150A), ‘Sync Out A’ (81160A) to channel 4 (scope)
5. 81160A only: select ‘Ch 2’, select ‘Trig’, go to ‘Trigger Out’ and set it to ‘Sync A’
6. 81160A only: set ‘Strobe Out’ to ‘Sync B’
07 | Keysight 81150A and 81160A Pulse Function Arbitrary Noise Generators - Demo Guide
1. Select ‘CHANNEL 1’ (button ‘CH 1’)
2. Enable ‘CONTINUOUS TRIGGER MODE‘ (button ‘Cont’)
3. Select ‘PULSE WAVEFORM’ (button ‘Pulse’)
4. Enter the pulse shape parameters:
Frequency: 1 MHz
Delay: 0 ns
Amplitude: 2.000 VPP
Offset: 1 VDC
1) Set up the first channel
2) Set up the second channel
1. Select ‘CHANNEL 2’ (button ‘CH 2’)
2. Select ‘SINE WAVEFORM’ (button ‘Sine’)
3. Enter the sine wave parameters:
Frequency: 2 MHz
Delay: 10 ns
Amplitude: 3.000 VPP
Offset: 0 VDC
Coupling between
channels
In this lab it is shown how two channels can be coupled, so that the instrument
behaves like a two-channel instrument with only one timebase. As a result of
coupling, the output function and all other parameters like burst, sweep and
modulation are also kept identical.
The very first task you should always perform, is to reset the instrument to
default settings (‘STORE/RECALL’ and ‘SET TO DEFAULTS’).

4) Set up the burst length
1. Set the burst length for channel 2. (button ‘Burst’)
This enables coupling of both channels. Since channel 1 is currently selected,
the settings of channel 2 will be adjusted to match the settings of channel 1. As
a result the following parameters of channel 1 are copied to channel 2:
Waveform: pulse wave is applied to Channel 2
(incl. all parameters without delay)
Trigger mode: changed from ‘TRIGGERED’ to ‘CONTINUOUS’.
Burst: set to ‘OFF’.
5) Switch back to channel 1
and enable coupling
(button ‘Coupling’)
3) Enable the trigger mode
1. Select ‘TRIGGER MODE’for Ch2 (button ‘Trig’)
2. Select ‘SINEWAVE’ as trigger signal
3. Enter trigger source (e.g. External In)
4. Triggered by rising edge
5. Set ‘TRIGGER OUT’and ‘STROBE OUT’ to TTL or ECL

Channel adding
(this requires a two
channel instrument)
In this exercise we add the output signals of the two independent output chan-
nels together. This is the only way to generate distorted signals out of standard
waveforms. Even more flexibility is provided when using Arb based signals on
one channel.
Please reset the instrument to default settings
(‘STORE/RECALL’ and ‘SET TO DEFAULTS’).
1) Set up the first channel
1. Select ‘CHANNEL 1’
2. Enable ‘CONTINUOUS TRIGGER MODE’
3. Select ‘PULSE WAVEFORM’
4. Enter the pulse shape parameters:
Frequency: 1 MHz
Width: 500 ns
Delay: 0 ns
Amplitude: 3.000 VPP
Offset: 0 VDC
Lead Edge: 75 %
Trail Edge: 50 %
Note: Make sure that the channels are not coupled
(Coupling key is not highlighted).
2) Set up the second channel
Enter the pulse shape parameters:
Frequency: 1 MHz
Width: 10 ns
Delay: 200 ns
Amplitude: 2.000 VPP
Offset: 0 VDC
Lead Edge: 2.5 ns
Trail Edge: 2.5 ns
