Tektronix today introduced its Power Distribution Network (PDN) Analysis Software for 4 Series B, 5 Series B, and 6 Series B Mixe ...

This article appeared in Microwaves & RF and has been published here with permission. Phase stability means reliable performance in specific test-and-measurement applications that call for a close ...

The data connection device under test in Figure 1 is characterized by comparing test signals sent into the link with signals measured at the link output. The differences between these two test signals ...

Based on the Tektronix 5 Series mixed-signal oscilloscope, the B version adds an auxiliary trigger input and extends generator frequency. These upgraded capabilities enable fast, thorough checks of ...

In Part 1, we explored the basic characteristics governing high-speed SerDes channels. This article focuses on real-world issues, such as parasitics and impedance mismatches, that require additional ...

The transition to HDMI 2.0 was overwhelmingly driven by the urge to support higher resolution signals, notably 4K HDR 4:4:4 with a 600-megapixel flow rate. HDMI 2.0 is furthermore built to accommodate ...

Analog and mixed-signal test remains heavily specification-based because the measurements do not always produce a single expected result. The absence of objective coverage metrics has historically ...

Interconnect cables play an important role in electronics testing. As high-speed signal communications continue to advance, cabling solutions will need to keep up with high-speed, multiport testing.

To achieve gains in power, performance, area, and cost, 3D-IC architectures are pushing electronics design to new limits. Silicon integration technology and associated devices have undergone an ...

As a signal travels across a network, it focuses only on what it sees in its path. And increases in data rates over the past few decades have made this path a bit more clouded. System infrastructure ...
