Don't forget the SDG1050 is only 50MHz on the sine wave function, everything else is the same as the SDG1025, including maximum 25MHz square wave. A square wave is the fundamental sine wave + odd harmonics, the first of which is 75MHz at 1/3rd the amplitude, so I would imagine a 50MHz sine is easily achievable on equipment that can produce square waves up to 25MHz. A 16.66MHz square wave will be generating a 50MHz sine (+ 83.33, 116.66, etc..)

You know what, I've not even teared it apaaart yet! But I know you can replace the crystal with an OCXO easily enough, space is provided for that. Other headers could be for JTAG and serial. Perhaps they envisaged a LAN/GPIB option board too? or maybe the SA1010 power amplifier add-on was originally intended as an internal upgrade?

Could it be a new AWG......possibly with BW upgrades. :-//

New AWG is coming but it looks different. Series 2000X (and slso 2000E)
(also coming SDS1000X series oscilloscopes)
I do not have any signs about new AWG what looks 1000 series. (of course it is possible there is coming also something like 1000X but is is just free speculation)
@tautech Have you noted that new SDG1000 generators serial numbers do not anymore tell model! ? (model is only hand check on the carton label but serial do not have any sign about model, same in some oscilloscopes... (perhaps it is sign about something is changing... ;) )

Not specifically, but I had noticed some letters in SNs that had not been present before.
What they signify I have no idea. :-//
I'd love it if we could stock less inventory and configure units to customer's requirements but unless someone cracks BW configuration I won't hold my breath waiting for Siglent to allow us do this.

Just had notifcation of new FW for the SDG1000 series.
Summary of Changes:
added boot up language selection

They seem to be the changes in the last update... I can confirm this update gets rid of the boot up language :-+ ... and they haven't removed the bandwidth update option :-+
