# Keysight EDU33211A 20 MHz Single-Channel Function / Arbitrary Waveform Generator (Pre-Owned) # Keysight EDU33211A 20 MHz Single-Channel Function / Arbitrary Waveform Generator (Pre-Owned) ## Key Features At A Glance - 20 MHz maximum frequency on sine output, with square and pulse to 10 MHz and ramp/triangle to 200 kHz - Single-channel (EDU33211A) or dual-channel (EDU33212A) configurations to match bench or differential signal requirements - 16-bit arbitrary waveform resolution with up to 8 MSa per channel memory and 250 MSa/s sample rate - 17 built-in waveforms including sine, square, ramp, pulse, PRBS, Gaussian noise, cardiac, Gaussian pulse, haversine, Lorentz, and sinc - Six modulation types standard: AM, FM, PM, FSK, BPSK, and PWM - 7-inch WVGA color display shows both channel parameters and waveform preview simultaneously - USB and LAN (LXI-C) connectivity standard with SCPI, IVI driver, web browser, and PathWave BenchVue software support - Front-panel USB memory port for setup, state, and arbitrary waveform transfer via USB flash drive The Keysight EDU33210 Series is a family of 20 MHz function and arbitrary waveform generators offered in two configurations: the single-channel EDU33211A and the dual-channel EDU33212A. Both models combine standard signal-generation capabilities — modulation, sweep, and burst — with a 7-inch WVGA color display that shows waveform parameters, signal preview, and channel status in a single view. Color-coded keypads, display fields, and output connectors are used to help prevent setup and connection errors during bench operation. The EDU33210 Series is built to generate the stimulus signals needed for circuit characterization, modulation testing, and arbitrary waveform playback. Typical applications supported by the built-in waveform set include cardiac signal simulation, exponential rise and fall responses, Gaussian pulse generation, haversine and Lorentz pulse generation, and pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS) data patterns. The six built-in modulation types — AM, FM, PM, FSK, BPSK, and PWM — let a single instrument cover analog modulation, simple digital keying, and pulse-width modulation tasks without external equipment. ## Brand Heritage Keysight Technologies was established in 2014 as the spin-off of Agilent Technologies' electronic measurement business. Agilent itself was created in 1999 when Hewlett-Packard separated its test-and-measurement, semiconductor, and life-science businesses from its computing operations. The Keysight name now carries forward the function and arbitrary waveform generator product heritage that originated under the HP and Agilent brands. ## Compare Other Models in This Series The Keysight EDU33210 Series consists of two 20 MHz function / arbitrary waveform generators that share the same waveform library, modulation capabilities, arbitrary waveform memory architecture, display, and connectivity. The two models are differentiated by channel count: the EDU33211A provides one output channel, and the EDU33212A provides two output channels with coupled, combined, equal, and differential operating modes. Both models offer the same 17 built-in waveforms, six modulation types (AM, FM, PM, FSK, BPSK, PWM), 16-bit arbitrary waveform resolution, 250 MSa/s maximum sample rate, 8 MSa-per-channel memory depth, USB and LAN interfaces, and 7-inch WVGA color display. Selecting between them is primarily a question of whether the application requires one channel or two. Each pre-owned model below has its own product page with condition-matched pricing and availability. Selecting the correct page for the channel-count configuration the application requires keeps the quote aligned with the unit that will actually ship. The single distinguishing specification between the two models in this family is channel count. The EDU33211A is the single-channel configuration, suitable for applications that require one independent stimulus output. The EDU33212A is the dual-channel configuration and adds two-channel operating modes including independent, coupled-parameter, combined, equal, and differential operation, with a relative-phase range of 0° to 360° in 0.1° steps. All other specifications listed in the datasheet — including frequency ranges per waveform type, amplitude range and accuracy, modulation types and parameters, arbitrary waveform memory depth and resolution, sweep and burst capabilities, sync and trigger I/O, and remote-control interfaces — apply to both models in the family. The comparison table below summarizes the channel-count difference.

The output turns off automatically when an overload is applied; the instrument will tolerate a short circuit to ground indefinitely.**Important:** Unless otherwise stated, all specifications are using a 50 Ω resistive load, and the automatic amplitude range selection is enabled.**Important:** Specifications refer to the warranted performance of a calibrated instrument stored for a minimum of two hours within the operating temperature range of 0 to 55 °C and after a one-hour warm-up period. Measurement and calibration uncertainties comply with ISO-17025 methods.**Important:** Typical performance represents what 80% or more of manufactured instruments will meet; warranty is not available for typical values and they are valid only at approximately 23 °C (room temperature).Usage tip: the datasheet's Other Education series products list pairs the EDU33210 Series with the EDUX1052A or EDUX1052G oscilloscope for stimulus-response work, the EDU34450A 5.5-digit DMM for output verification, and the EDU36311A triple-output DC supply for powering the device under test.
