Thanks to
Twintex Instrument Ltd and
Miss Lily Cheung Sales manager, one TFG-3620E arbitrary waveform function generator it got shipped today for a product review to ITTSB.
Twintex Instrument Ltd informed me that they are the Original Design Manufacturer of this product.
The TFG-3620E is the latest version of their product design, which originally started to circulate at about 2011 under different hardware configurations.
Twintex suggest this model as economic version among their products line, but even so the TFG-3620E comes loaded with all hardware options of this design as standard.
Among the options is the 200MHz frequency counter plus software and cable for PC connectivity due Serial port.
Serial to USB converters are cheap and easy to find these days if you care for USB PC connectivity.
It is a true fact that some MFG3000CH revisions does not include all possible hardware options, as for example an active USB front panel port or active Serial port, even if the on board connectors were in place.
Today the competition among arbitrary waveform function generators has move in to much higher level but this change it did drive higher and the manufacturing and the retail cost.
The new TFG-3620E looks matured regarding specifications and hardware options, and also looks reasonably priced even in Europe.
Arbitrary waveform function generators are famous about their usefulness in many sections of our modern industrial electronics, electronics design, evaluation of test & measurement instruments, and naturally for educational purposes
For now I will share with you the DHL tracking receipt and every other update will follow at the proper timing.
