Industry’s 'lowest power' wideband RF synthesiser
Claimed to be the industry’s lowest power wideband RF synthesiser, the LMX2571 from Texas Instruments integrates an ultra-low-noise PLLatinum fractional-N PLL with a multicore VCO. This enables enabling low phase noise and spurs at only 39mA (128mW) and a PLL noise figure-of-merit of -231dBc/Hz, which is eight times better than the competition and enhances receiver sensitivity.
Advanced analysis added to HDMI receiver testing
The addition of advanced analysis and characterisation support for HDMI 2.0 receiver testing has expanded Tektronix’s portfolio of HDMI test solution. The new HDMXpress provides complete support for HDMI test pattern generation, auto-calibration and margin testing, eliminating the needs for manual pattern creation.
Software release addresses new serial bus standards
In response to the proliferation of serial bus communications in electronic designs, the latest version of PicoScope now has decoding and analysis of sixteen protocols included as standard. When used with the deep memory included in most PicoScope oscilloscopes, this new software release creates a powerful debugging and troubleshooting tool at no extra cost to PicoScope owners.
Oscilloscopes on parade at Sensor & Test exhibition
Oscilloscopes will take centre stage on Rohde & Schwarz’s stand at the Sensor & Test exhibition in Nuremberg (May 19-21). Products range from three HMO entry-level oscilloscopes with bandwidths of 50MHz to 500MHz to the mid-range RTM2000 and RTE with up to 2GHz bandwidth and the high-performance RTO oscilloscopes with up to 4GHz bandwidth.
Calibration service expands operations
A specialist UKAS accredited calibration service for electrical and electronic test and measurement equipment has expanded its operations to meet growing demand. Calibrationhouse has invested in extended workshop facilities and new test technology, as well as recruiting additional service and calibration engineers at its County Durham headquarters.
Oscilloscope family gets bandwidth upgrade via software
The Mid and High Range Oscilloscope Series DS/MSO4000 from Rigol has been extended and it now offers the possibility to upgrade the oscilloscope bandwidth via software code license. Users can now start with a lower cost solution of the MSO/DS4000 family and can extend it based on future needs or applications. For enhanced application and measurement needs they can get much higher instrument bandwidth through an easy to handle software code upgrad...
Test options proliferate at Automotive Test Expo
A solution for testing automatic in vehicle emergency call systems will be a highlight on Rohde & Schwarz’s stand at the Automotive Testing Expo in Stuttgart (June 16-18). Based on an EU decision, eCall will be mandatory in all new car models from April 2018. ERA-Glonass, which is the Russian equivalent, was launched in spring 2015.
Photoreceiver makes optical alignment easy
A photoreceiver which consists of a photodiode followed by a high-end, variable gain transimpedance amplifier has been introduced by LASER COMPONENTS. The OE-300 features relatively large sized detectors, which make optical alignment easy and also ensure a very high coupling efficiency when using the Si models together with the optionally available fibre optic adapters PRA-FC/SMA.
Trigger/analysis options upgrade oscilloscopes
Trigger and analysis options have been added by Yokogawa to its DLM2000 (4-channel) and DLM4000 (8-channel) Mixed Signal Oscilloscopes (MSOs) for testing the latest generation of in-vehicle serial buses. The options are specifically designed to address the measurement challenges posed by the CAN FD (CAN with Flexible Data Rate) and SENT (Single Edge Nibble Transmission) bus systems.
Oscilloscopes enhanced for high-speed testing
Teledyne LeCroy has made significant enhancements to the two high performance oscilloscope product lines in the company’s portfolio. The LabMaster 10 Zi-A delivers improved performance in effective number of bits and baseline noise along with the industry leading jitter measurement floor. The WaveMaster 8 Zi-B features increased sample rate, lower noise, enhanced processing capabilities and the latest version of Teledyne LeCroy’s osci...
