I was looking for a budget function generator and found that there was a lot of eevblog love for the Instek SFG-1003. I was about to buy it, but while checking out Instek's website, I found that they had a newer 5MHz arbitrary waveform generator AFG-2005 (or AFG-2105 if you wanted modulation & sweep capability and also frequency counter).
I don't really need modulation or frequency counter from the function generator. I could occasionally use arbitrary waveforms. So I bought an AFG-2005 yesterday for $250. A bit more than the SFG-1003, for sure, but still seems reasonable.
I haven't received it yet. I was wondering if anybody here is using the AFG-2000 or AFG-2100 series, and had any reviews or words of wisdom to share.
Thanks
