A digital storage oscilloscope (DSO) is characterized by the presence of a microprocessor, which is physically and functionally at the heart of the processing section. Other stages in the processor are the acquisition memory, at its input and the display memory at its output. The DSO’s signal paths (one for each channel) begin at the […]

Debug tookit for DDR5 and LPDDR5 handles 6,400 Mb/sec data rates
A DDR5 Debug Toolkit runs on SDA 8 Zi-B and LabMaster 10Zi-A oscilloscopes. The DDR Debug Toolkit now supports DDR5/LPDDR5 for test, analysis and debug of the entire DDR design cycle. Features include automatic Read/Write burst separation, bursted data jitter analysis, eye diagram mask tests, DDR-specific measurement parameters, and seamless integration with the HDA-125 High-Speed […]
Common-mode differential probes excel at 48-V GaN power conversion work
New DL-HCM probes from Teledyne LeCroy target 48-V GaN Power Conversion. They are available in 500 MHz and 1 GHz bandwidth and feature 60 V of common-mode and 80 V differential input range. The 60 V of common mode is well suited for handling any float of the battery and bulk/absorption voltage during charging, while […]
Advanced 500-MHz scopes provide 1mV/div min input range, digital trigger system
The Teledyne Test Tools T3DSO2000A Oscilloscopes are available in two-channel and four-channel versions with analog bandwidths from 100bMHz to 500 MHz. Each model offers a maximum sample rate of 2 GSa/sec and a maximum memory depth of 200 Mpts in half-channel mode. The T3DSO2000A series employs a new generation of high-speed display technology that provides […]
Are you sure you know what bandwidth means?
Bandwidth is a principal specification when choosing an oscilloscope or related instrument. What it means in this context is a displayed signal’s maximum frequency above which the scope attenuates the amplitude of the signal it sees. Problem is, this isn’t the only definition of bandwidth. The concept has slightly different meanings (and consequences) depending on […]
Multifunctional 16-bit AWGs include synchronized digital pattern generation
The T3AWG2152 and T3AWG2152-D generators are multifunctional 150MHz arbitrary/sweep/function generators that combine multiple functions in a single instrument, including a two-channel function and arbitrary waveform generator with an eight-channel digital pattern generator (in the D version). These three different functionalities are based on an advanced Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) technology which allows glitch-free on-the-fly changes […]
Protocol test system captures 200-Gb Ethernet PAM4 signaling
The SierraNet M648 Ethernet and Fibre Channel Protocol Test System carries the latest Net Protocol Suite software version 4.30. SierraNet M648 offers extensive and deep Ethernet protocol analysis, including InFusion traffic impairment tools for both NRZ and PAM4 signaling and is the only dedicated analysis tool in the market to offer complete test and network […]
Working with oscilloscope probes, part two
The oscilloscope can be viewed as essentially a voltmeter that incorporates a dynamic display. But the oscilloscope can also make use of a current probe to convert current information into corresponding voltage potentials displayed in units of Amperes. The current-to-voltage conversion takes place within the current probe which operates like the electrician’s clamp-on ammeter. The […]
Signal quality analyzer supports USB4 receiver tests
The USB4 receiver test solution uses the Anritsu Signal Quality Analyzer-R MP1900A in combination with automation software from Granite River Labs or Teledyne LeCroy to control a connected oscilloscope and implement tests meeting the latest USB4 standards. The spread of next-generation 5G mobile communications and Internet of Things (IoT) devices is driving development of various […]
