I have a requirement for a pulse generator with an output of 5 volts 500mA and I have a 33120A available to me. Will this work? I can't find anything in the specs about current output.

No one else has this question

The 33120A is not capable of sourcing that much current. Here is an old FAQ on the topic:

Thanks for your response. Do you have anything either newer or older that will fit this requirement?

Hi,

I think the N6700 might be a better solution here for the 0.5A current requirement. If this is a bench application, perhaps an N6705B power analyzer with an N6751A module will be a good choice. If it is an ATE application, then I would recommend an N6700B mainframe with an N6751A module. There is a LIST function which enables the N6700 platform to create built-in and arbitrary waveforms. Let me know if you have any questions.
