Keithley has paired the best-in-class performance 

of the Model 3390 Arbitrary Waveform/Function 

Generator with the best price in the industry to 

provide your applications with superior wave-

form generation functionality and flexibility at 

an unparalleled price .
From its fully featured Arbitrary Waveform 

Generator (ARB) to its high speed and ease-of-

use, the Model 3390 is a complete signal genera-

tion solution for all your waveform application 

needs up to 50MHz .

Versatile Waveform 

Creation Capabilities
The Model 3390 generates highly stable and 

accurate waveforms that allow you to create 

almost any desired shape . It uses direct digital 

synthesis (DDS) techniques to achieve this level of performance and functionality .
The exceptional signal quality of the Model 3390 is a result of its high resolution, fast rise and fall 

times, and deep memory . This combined with its low price makes it the ideal solution for applications 

that use the 50MHz bandwidth and below . Lower speed instruments cannot provide the signal accu-

racy of the Model 3390, even at bandwidths they were specifically designed for .

arbitrary Waveform Generation (arb)
With the Model 3390, you can precisely replicate real world signals . This 14-bit ARB provides the 

ability to define waveforms with up to 256,000 data points and generate them at a sampling rate 

of 125MSamples/second . For ease of use, up to four user-defined waveforms can be stored in the 

onboard non-volatile memory .

function Generation
Standard output waveforms can be created by pressing one button on the front panel . Ten standard 

waveforms are provided, including the basic sine, square, ramp, and triangle shapes . The Model 3390 

offers the highest repetition rates of any instrument in its class, allowing you to better emulate the 

signals you need to test .

Pulse Generation
Pulse capabilities have become critically important as devices being tested have become smaller, more 

sensitive, and more complex . To accurately duplicate the signals these tiny devices receive, very clean 

pulses with crisp edges are mandatory, which is why the Model 3390 offers the fastest rise time (5ns) 

and cleanest pulse shapes for this class of instrument .

Modulating Waveforms
The ability of the Model 3390 to modulate at 

high internal frequencies allows you to accu-

rately simulate real-world conditions . Modulate 

any of your signals with the built-in AM, FM, PM, 

PWM, or FSK source, or use your own external 

modulation source .

Noise Generation
Inject noise into your device under test with 

the press of a button . The adjustable amplitude 

and offset parameters control how much or how 

little noise is produced . The fast rise times and 

high speed capability provides the precise noise 

simulation your applications require .
