TITLE: Low‐Cost Arbitrary Waveform Generator

Requesting Laboratory / Division / Group:

Communications Technology Laboratory Radio Frequency Technology Division Superconductive Electronics Group (672.06)

General Statement of Need:

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), along with the Superconductive Electronics Group (672.06) is developing a prototype quantum bit (“qubit”) as a potential standard test instrument. The testing of this standard qubit requires shaped microwave signals generated by an Arbitrary Waveform Generator (AWG) that can generate signals in signals in the 400 MHz frequency range signals has at least 12 bits of resolution and it has the capacity of digitizing the down converted readout signals for active feedback control..

We wish to purchase a new arbitrary waveform generator to facilitate the development and testing of our qubit reference system.

Item Specifications and Quantities:

Item 1: Arbitrary Microwave Generator

Quantity: 1

Specifications:

1 6 Standalone independent output channels (read from different memory sections) with 400 MHz bandwidth

2 Ability to generate samples at a not‐return‐to‐zero rate up to or greater than 1 GSamples/sec

3 Analog bandwidth of 400 MHz per channel.

4 Ability to choose between at least 65536 voltage levels (16‐bit) for each sample

5 Peak‐to‐peak maximum voltage of at least 500 mV into 50Ω for each output

6 Ability to take and deliver a clock and fast trigger signal.

7 10 Digital Output Channels

8 Minimum of 2 Standalone input channels with minimum 1Gsample/s acquisition

8.1 Input channels bandwidth of at least 400 MHz

8.2 Minimum of 12‐bit resolution

9 Real‐Time Capabilities for active feedback control of the output channels with a maximum feedback latency of 400 ns for both digital and analog.

10 Self‐contained and powered using standard 120Vac / 60 Hz wall power.
