I have two SDG 1032X signal generators, I was hoping to link them to have it generate a 3 phase signal but it's too limited. Works well as a function generator though.
Maybe you can. If you create two signals 120º out of phase you can generate the 3rd signal simply by adding and inverting the two. Alternatively, you can synchronize two SDG 1032X dual channel signal generators using the Aux and 10MHz In/Out connectors on the rear panel and generate up to 4 phase-synchronized signals. The caveat is that these signal generators are a little too slow for your purposes because their minimal pulse width is 32.6ns and you need them to be around 20ns. What is the minimal pulse width in the Square Wave mode of you set the Duty Cycle to 0.001% ? Try this at high and low Square Wave frequencies... Last but not least, even if you cannot get the pulse width below 32ns, you can still use these signal generators to generate the three 3-phase signals and use only one edge of the pulses (e.g. the rising edges) to trigger a pulse stretcher such as the 74VHC221. Edit: I'm in the US
I'm in EU so I cannot help you with test equipment but if you are somewhere near NY then perhaps Chet could help you.
