Digital Sampling Oscilloscope
Sampling scopes target 25/100/400 Gb/s optical tests
Keysight Technologies, Inc. has announced the N1092A, N1092B and N1092D DCA-M sampling oscilloscopes, which are ideal for 25/100/400 Gb/s optical test. Networks of 100 and 400 Gb/s rely on multiple-lane transmitters based on 25 Gb/s class lasers. As these technologies become mainstream and transition to high-volume manufacturing, there is a growing need for test systems […]
H-P, Agilent, Keysight: New name, same reputation
Those of us who have been around electronic instrumentation for a while can remember the days when Hewlett-Packard instruments were considered the cream of the crop. Where I worked, we always tried to get to the lab early on the days we had tests to run so we could get our hands on the highly […]
Video: Tektronix MSO2024 Oscilloscope Product Review
For the sake of this demonstration, I will be looking at the frequency anomalies, using a DPO circuit board and MSO2024 Oscilloscope courtesy of Tektronix. Previously, I wrote a blog on Frequent engineers/designers mistakes specifying power products on the powersupplytips.com site. In this blog, there are questions to what designers should pay attention to. Designers […]
Tektronix boosts DSA8300 Digital Sampling Oscilloscope
Tektronix, Inc. (www.tek.com) enhances its DSA8300 Digital Sampling Oscilloscope with the OM4000 Series Optical Modulation Analyzer, which enables the device to perform analysis on PM-QPSK, QAM as well as other complex-modulation signals, with higher vertical resolution of 16 bits. As a result of this enhancement, the oscilloscope will cater flexibility to optical networking manufacturers and […]
Tektronix DPO/DSA/MSO70000 Series Oscilloscope used to test new MHL Specification
Tektronix, Inc. (www.tek.com) has used a DPO/DSA/MSO70000 Series Oscilloscope to test the latest Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL) Compliance Test Specification (CTS) 1.2. Developed by the MHL Consortium, the new MHL Specification covers receiver, transmitter and dongle testing for both protocol and physical (PHY) layers, delivering faster and easier debug and analysis and compliance testing to […]
Tektronix enhances Automated Debug & Compliance Solution for DPO/DSA/MSO70000D Series
Oscilloscope manufacturer Tektronix (www.tek.com) has unveiled a series of extensions and enhancements to its SFF 8431 SFP+ debug and compliance offering, including the latest support for the Transmitter Waveform Distortion Penalty for Copper (TWDPc) measurement that can only be performed on fast sampling rates oscilloscope, such as the Tektronix DPO/DSA/MSO70000D Series. The enhancements offer the […]
Tektronix “2-box” solution revealed
Tektronix (www.tek.com) has unveiled industry’s only-customer proven and most cost-effective solution for the MIPI Alliance M-PHY testing anchored on the new M-PHY v1.0 specification. Unlike competitive offerings for M-PHY test that demands a vast array of instruments to cover the entire range of M-PHY test mandates, the Tektronix “2-box” solution requires only an AWG7000 Series […]
Types of sampling methods
Sampling refers to the process of converting a part of an input signal into various discrete electrical values for purposes of storage, processing and/or display. The extent of every sampled point is similar to the input signal’s amplitude at the exact time the signal is sampled. Sampling is just like taking snapshots. A single snapshot […]
