CLIN 0006 Shipping

Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) intends to purchase, on a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) basis, brand name or equal according to the minimum specification below. Required delivery is F.O.B. Destination, Naval Station Newport, Rhode Island.

Note: Quotes that meet the following salient characteristics are considered equal to the model listed in the above list:

System Minimum Requirement

1. Output channels capable of generating arbitrary waveforms


2. At least one integrated screen and input panel for individual channel waveform programming and general operation


3. Does not require connection to the internet to operate


4. Does not require Bluetooth or any wireless connection to operate


5. System must have a total of at least 32 digital output channels and at least 32 analog output channels. A total of four stand-alone units can be connected with additional hardware (1 master, 3 slaves) in order for the system to have the 32 total output channels if skewing or offsetting of the clock is possible. In other words, all 32 outputs must be capable of synchronizing in phase (true arbitrary) such that the channels can be switch on/off and modified without losing phase synchronization.


6. If stand-alone units are used to provide the 32 total channels (1 master, 3 slaves), then each stand-alone unit must have a minimum of 8 digital and 8 analog output channels.


7. Each output channel (analog or digital) must be individually controllable such that the system can provide mixed signals. E.g. each analog output is capable of outputting a unique function with voltage, frequency, and phase delay that is different than the other channels which may or may not be running simultaneously.


8. Both digital and analog channels must be able to operate simultaneously.


9. 16 bit vertical resolution


10. Arbitrary waveform capable of 24V peak to peak output signal into high impedance load. Must have voltage biasing capability of +/- 12V, such that the system is capable of +24V or -24V into a high impedance load. Additional hardware may be included to boost this output


11. Arbitrary capable of 12V peak-to-peak into 50 ohm load. Must have voltage biasing capability of +/- 12V, such that the system is capable of +12V or -12V into a 50 ohm load. Additional hardware may be included to boost this output


12. Analog outputs are capable of a DC waveform with +/- 12V into high impedance. additional hardware may be included to boost this output


13. Arbitrary waveform frequency range of at least 1mHz to 100MHz


14. Waveform memory for at least 100M points per channel


15. Does not require a paid subscription to operate


16. Run modes include Continuous, Sweep, and Burst


17. All analog output channels are single ended BNC type connectors


18. At least a 5ns rise/fall time


19. Arbitrary waveforms can be uploaded to the stand alone units via USB flash drive. The unit shall not include a USB flash at delivery.
