Product overview

The R&S®HMF2525 / HMF2550 is a high-precision arbitrary function generator from Rohde & Schwarz covering 10 μHz to 25 MHz (HMF2525) or 50 MHz (HMF2550), with sine, square, triangle, pulse and arbitrary waveform output. Its arbitrary waveform generator runs at 250 Msample/s with 14-bit resolution and 256 kpoint memory, so complex signals are reproduced faithfully. Strong pulse generation and a low cost of ownership make it a natural choice for the development bench and for production test.

Key features

  • Wide frequency range: 10 μHz to 25 MHz (HMF2525) or 50 MHz (HMF2550), for a broad spread of test scenarios
  • High-performance arbitrary waveform generation: 250 Msample/s sample rate, 14-bit resolution, 256 kpoint memory depth
  • Powerful pulse generator: pulse repetition rate up to 12.5 MHz (HMF2525) / 25 MHz (HMF2550), pulse width settable from 15 ns to 999 s with 5 ns resolution
  • Adjustable rise/fall time: 8 ns to 500 ns, for faithful reproduction of real circuit edges
  • Wide output voltage range: 5 mV to 10 V (Vpp) into 50 Ω, to suit a wide range of devices under test
  • USB port on the front panel: load arbitrary waveform files straight from a USB stick
  • Free R&S®HMExplorer PC software: design and import arbitrary waveforms on a PC and transfer them to the instrument over USB
  • Interface options: RS-232/USB, Ethernet/USB or IEEE-488 (GPIB) remote control interfaces for system integration
  • Triangle waves up to 10 MHz: high-frequency triangle output alongside the other standard waveforms

Typical applications

  • Measuring and characterizing input hysteresis of semiconductor devices
  • Functional verification and stimulus generation for embedded systems and digital circuits
  • Frequency response testing of sensors, filters and analog circuits
  • Transient response evaluation of power supplies and DC-DC converters
  • Baseband signal simulation for communications and RF modules
  • Waveform generation and measurement practicals in teaching and research laboratories
