What sample rate and resolution does the Tabor Proteus P9084D arbitrary waveform generator offer?
The Tabor Proteus P9084D runs at 9 GS/s with 16-bit resolution across four channels. It ships with 4 GS of waveform memory per channel and handles up to 16 markers per output.
That depth matters a lot in radar simulation and 5G test work, where both timing precision and amplitude accuracy have to be right simultaneously. Engineers in those fields will find the P9084D in Electrotest’s production line testing equipment range.
Can the Proteus P9084D transmit and receive signals at the same time?
Yes. The P9084D combines an AWG, a digitiser, and DSP in one box. An optional 2.7 GS/s, 12-bit digitiser lets the output waveform update in real time based on what the instrument is measuring from the device under test.
That feedback loop is what you need for adaptive signal testing and antenna characterisation, where playing a fixed pre-loaded waveform just does not cut it. Engineers pairing the P9084D with a spectrum analyser for full stimulus-and-capture setups can find compatible models in the same category.
What connectivity interfaces does the Tabor Proteus P9084D support?
The P9084D comes with USB 3.0, 10G Ethernet, and Thunderbolt as standard. Each interface connects directly to the FPGA, which is what lets the instrument stream waveform data in real time without stopping to reload.
The 10G Ethernet port makes a real difference when you are pushing large waveform files into the instrument repeatedly. Labs putting together full test systems around the P9084D can find complementary oscilloscopes, power supplies, and electronic loads in Electrotest’s R&D test equipment range.
What does “task-oriented sequence programming” mean on the Proteus P9084D?
Instead of playing waveform segments in a fixed order, the P9084D lets you break a test into discrete tasks that can loop, chain, or branch depending on incoming triggers or digitiser feedback. The signal never stops while this happens.
For anyone building radar pulse trains or frequency hopping tests, this is the feature that makes the instrument genuinely flexible rather than just fast. University and research labs will also find the P9084D listed under Electrotest’s advanced lab equipment range for science and engineering applications.
Is the Tabor Proteus P9084D suitable for microwave frequency applications?
Yes. The P9084D includes a built-in NCO that handles the up-converting, moving baseband or IF waveforms into the microwave range without needing a separate box to do it. Analogue bandwidth reaches 8 GHz.
That makes it practical for electronic warfare and satellite communications work, where you need to synthesise microwave signals directly. Engineers who need signal generators for lower-frequency telecom applications can find those at Electrotest, too.
