Multifunction Synthesizer
Catalog
Agilent 8904A Waveform Catalog
Introduction
This catalog is a collection of waveforms created using the Agilent Technologies 8904A Multifunction
Synthesizer. This catalog should not be considered a comprehensive list of waveforms possible with the
8904A Multifunction Synthesizer, but only a small sampling. The catalog is intended to give the 8904A user
an indication of capabilities of the instrument and stimulate ideas for desired waveforms. In most cases,
the waveforms shown can be altered to match an application by changing waveform, their amplitudes or
phases, or by summing additional signals. All waveforms shown require Option 001.

For detailed instructions on the operation of the 8904A, see the Agilent 8904A Multifunction Synthesizer
Basic Operation and Application Guide.
