Network analyzers incorporate high-performance signal generators for complex measurements
Enhanced PNA and PNA-X network analyzers contain a proprietary low-spurious direct-digital-synthesis (DDS) source, enabling users to take accurate measurements with less phase noise interference. With the clean source signals, users can perform two-tone IMD measurements with close tone spacing previously only possible with high-performance analog signal generators. The new DDS sources also enhance the performance […]
Photovoltaic array simulators deliver 20 kW in a 3U format
A new family of photovoltaic (PV) array simulators are the first to deliver 2,000 V and 20 kW of power in a 3U format, enabling engineers to maximize solar power conversion. To keep solar power at grid parity with competing methods of power generation, performance and power conversion efficiency are critical. Small increments in power […]
Regenerative power supplies handle up to 20 kW and 2,000 V
The RP7900 Series of regenerative power supplies has expanded with the introduction of two new bidirectional, regenerative dc power supplies providing integrated safety features that protect people and devices under test (DUT). The regenerative design of the new models enables the energy normally consumed to be returned to the grid cleanly, saving costs associated with […]
6-GHz scope combines eight analog, 16 digital channels
The first oscilloscope with eight analog channels at 6 GHz and 16 simultaneous digital channels, enables users to reduce test bench and workflow complexity to boost performance as well as provide accurate and repeatable multi-channel measurements in a single instrument. High-speed digital designs, power integrity verification, Wi-Fi 6, IoT, IIoT and imaging and gallium nitride […]
Economical two-channel scopes reach 200 MHz bandwidths
Four new 2-channel models of the InfiniiVision 1000 X-Series oscilloscopes provide 50 MHz to 200 MHz bandwidth, providing professional-level measurements and capabilities at an affordable price, including a standard decode function for five serial data protocols and remote connection via local area networks (LANs) and USB. The new InfiniiVision 1000 X-Series oscilloscopes use the same […]
Do you really need a VNA when a scalar network analyzer might do?
Network analyzers measure network parameters of electrical networks, such as two-port amplifiers and filters. The instruments characteristically operate at 5 Hz to 1.05 THz, mostly at the higher end, though some models are sensitive down to 1 Hz. These instruments are available in two varieties: scalar network analyzers, which measure only the amplitude of the […]
Scope software allows timing phase noise, jitter performance assessments
A collaboration between Keysight Technologies and Silicon Labs streamlines the validation of timing solutions critical in the development of system-level designs for wireless communications, high-speed digital, medical imaging and automotive applications. Timing plays a key role in the smooth transfer of data in wireless and wireline networks and relies on highly accurate clocks. Easy access […]
Test setup handles next-generation DDR5 memory
The world’s first design and test workflow solution designed to reduce product development time for Double-Data Rate Dynamic Random-Access Memory (DDR5 DRAM) systems has been developed by Keysight Technologies. Running at twice the data rate of DDR4, DDR5 DRAM shrinks design margins and makes it difficult for a hardware designer to optimize the printed circuit […]
High-speed differential probes handle DDR5, LPDDR5 memory signals
The MX0023A InfiniiMax RC is a new high-speed differential probing solution for Double Data Rate 5 (DDR5) and Low Power Double Data Rate 5 (LPDDR5) memory. As data rates of mobile bus systems increase, the edge speed of the signal gets faster, thus requiring higher bandwidth probe solutions. At the same time, many systems deploy […]
