The Rigol DG952 is a dual-channel, 50 MHz arbitrary waveform generator engineered for precision signal generation in laboratory and field applications. Built on Rigol’s SiFi II technology, it delivers high-fidelity waveform reproduction with 16-bit vertical resolution and a 250 MSa/s sampling rate. The instrument combines seven basic waveforms—sine, square, ramp, pulse, noise, constant, and double-tone—with 160 built-in arbitrary waveforms and extended digital patterns including PRBS, RS232, and sequencing capability. Its 16 Mpts per-channel memory depth supports complex signal development and editing via the included PC software and intuitive 4.3-inch TFT touchscreen (480 × 272 pixels).
