Waveform generator
D.E.V.I.C.E. is an encyclopedia of terms used by manufacturers of test and measurement equipment. T&M Atlantic created this service to better explain the functionality of instruments it offers, and to highlight the latest developments in the world of measurement equipment. We are using such tools as animation to bring words and pictures to life and to create not just an understanding but also an appreciation for technology that goes into the design of every instrument.

Waveform generator is a calibrated (standard) signal source of different types and frequencies intended for operations with electronic circuits and measurements in them. Synonym is standard signal generator.
A typical harmonic wave generators classification of frequency range of the generated output signals:
- Low-frequency signal generators (frequency range: from Hz to hundreds of kHz),
- RF signal generator (frequency range: from hundreds of kHz to hundreds of MHz),
- Microwave signal generator (frequency range: from hundreds of Mhz to dozens of GHz)
Modern generators are usually functional generators which use direct digital synthesis (DDS).
