The Tektronix AFG1000 Series is a dual-channel arbitrary/function generator built to deliver waveform generation with a strong price-performance ratio. The series comprises two models that share a common architecture while spanning a range of bandwidth and output capability, and it provides sine, square, pulse, ramp, noise, and 45 additional frequently used arbitrary waveforms — 50 built-in waveforms in total — together with output amplitude up to 10 Vp-p and a built-in 200 MHz frequency counter that together cover most waveform generation needs in experiment and test work.
The listed applications for the AFG1000 Series are electric and electronics experiments, communications experiments, sensor simulation, and functional test. The series is positioned as a tool for students and other users to complete their experiment and test jobs, and it serves as a building block of the Tektronix educational solution through its compatibility with TekSmartLab for teaching, learning, and lab management.
ValueTronics is a stocking specialist in test and measurement equipment. Every used unit is inspected and functionally verified in-house by our technicians before it ships, while new units ship factory-sealed exactly as received from the manufacturer. That combination of real on-hand inventory and hands-on verification is how we stand behind what we sell.
Tektronix has operated under its own name since its founding in 1946. In 2007 it was acquired by Danaher Corporation, and in 2016 it became part of Fortive Corporation when Fortive was spun off from Danaher. The Tektronix brand has remained constant throughout these ownership changes.
The AFG1000 Series comprises two dual-channel arbitrary/function generator models, the AFG1022 and the AFG1062, built on a shared architecture. Both provide 14-bit arbitrary waveforms, output amplitude from 1 mVp-p to 10 Vp-p into 50 Ω, a 200 MHz frequency counter, a 3.95-inch color display, and 64-MByte non-volatile memory.
The two models differ in maximum bandwidth, sample rate, arbitrary-waveform record length, and the breadth of available modulation and per-channel capability. Each model's exact figures are shown in the comparison table that follows.
Each pre-owned model below has its own dedicated product page with condition-matched pricing. Compare the bandwidth, sample rate, and memory of the AFG1022 and AFG1062 in the table that follows, then open the individual product page for the model that fits the application.
The principal differences between the two models are bandwidth and arbitrary-waveform performance. The AFG1022 provides sine output to 25 MHz, square output to 12.5 MHz, ramp to 1 MHz, a 125 MS/s sample rate, and 8,192-point record length, while the AFG1062 provides sine to 60 MHz, square to 30 MHz, ramp to 2 MHz, a 300 MS/s sample rate, and 1 M-point record length.
The models also differ in modulation and channel behavior. On the AFG1022, modulation, sweep, and burst modes are available on channel 1 only, whereas the AFG1062 supports these modes on both channels equally; amplitude-shift keying, phase-shift keying, and pulse-width modulation are available on the AFG1062 only. The comparison table below details these differences alongside noise bandwidth, jitter, and rise/fall-time figures for each model.

|---|---|---|---|
| AFG1062 | 60 MHz | 30 MHz | 300 MS/s |
| AFG1022 | 25 MHz | 12.5 MHz | 125 MS/s |
