Physics, chemistry and electronics research
You can generate any arbitrary waveform that you can mathematically describe (e.g. in
MATLAB) and download it directly to the M8195A. This includes ultra-short yet precise
pulses down to ~100 ps pulse width or extremely short, yet wideband RF pulses and
chirps.
In conjunction with the M8197A synchronization module, these signals can be triggered
from external sources with very low jitter.

The M8195A can address wideband wireless, EW and comms/satcom applications where
extremely wide instantaneous bandwidth (DC to 25 GHz) and fast frequency hopping are
critical parameters.
With built-in frequency and phase calibration, it is straight forward to generate wideband
multi-tone signals with a flat frequency response up to 25 GHz.
Wideband wireless signals with any modulation scheme (e.g. nPSK, nQAM, APSK, OFDM,
etc.) can be generated directly at carrier frequencies of up to 25 GHz. In many cases,
this saves an additional up-conversion stage (e.g. in case of IEEE 802.11ad) or enables
waveform generation directly at the carrier frequency.

Note that the available frequency range depends on the number of channels that are
used simultaneously as well as the amount of memory per channel (see sample memory
modes in this document).
