Agilent Infiniium 90000 Series Oscilloscope Hardware Yields Waveform Update Rates More than 20 Times Faster than Other High-Performance Scopes
Agilent Technologies today announced the inclusion of faster PC hardware in the Infiniium 90000 Series oscilloscope family. These award-winning, high-performance, real-time oscilloscopes are the most responsive in their class with waveform update rates more than 20 times faster than comparable scopes.
EngiOscilloscopes also need processing power to remain responsive when manipulating complex algorithms such as de-embedding algorithms. This improved responsiveness allows engineers to account for the effects of channels, probes and fixtures on high-speed signals. Agilent's InfiniiSim waveform transformation software (N5465A), which also uses hardware acceleration, takes advantage of the new performance enhancements to provide superior waveform update rates for measurements that use de-embedding algorithms.
Delivering best-in-class oscilloscopes clearly takes an ongoing commitment to investing in key scope technologies, but it's also key to leverage industry performance enhancements in PC platform technology, said Jay Alexander, vice president and general manager of Agilent's oscilloscope organization. We're excited about helping engineers save significant time making measurements as well as giving them access to measurements they can't perform on other scopes.
The new performance enhancements come standard at no additional cost on all Infiniium 90000 Series Oscilloscopes ordered after Nov. 15, 2009.
