Agilent’s N8808A UniPro and N8809A LLI protocol decoders are designed to run on the company’s Infiniium 90000 Series oscilloscopes. They enable protocol decoding for the MIPI Alliance’s UniPro v1.41 and LLI v1.0 specifications. The software supports MIPI M-PHY Gear-3 speeds of up to 5.8 Gbps and R&D design teams can use the software to address their start-up debug and validation needs.
A product must pass the USB Implementers Forum's compliance tests (USB-IF compliance program). Rohde & Schwarz meets this need with the R&S RTO-K21 USB 2.0 compliance test software for its R&S RTO high-performance oscilloscope. This software offers scenarios for testing USB 2.0 devices (DUT) when functioning as a device, host or hub.
FEKO Suite 6.2 introduces several completely new features to FEKO. Characteristic mode analysis (CMA) is the numerical calculation of a weighted set of orthogonal current-modes that are supported on conducting bodies (similar to waveguide modes). The eigencurrents are independent of any specific source or excitation and thus only depend on the shape and size of the conducting body.
Agilent Technologies Inc. announced the industry’s first fully integrated PCI Express® (PCIe®)3.0 receiver test calibration and transmitter test software. The software provides an integrated environment for calibrating the stressed voltage and stressed receiver eye using an Agilent J-BERT bit error-ratio tester, an Agilent 90000A-, Q- or X-Series oscilloscope, an Agilent pulse function generator and Agilent PCI Express 3.0 calibration test channels.
Planar Monolithics Industries, Inc. introduces new USB style RF & microwave control components and LNA's to 40 GHz. RF & microwave USB style components & LNA’s featuring: 50 MHz to 40 GHz low noise amplifier, 500 MHz to 40 GHz SPDT absorptive switch, and 100 MHz to 40 GHz variable attenuator.
Agilent announces the latest release of its industry-leading, low-cost, high-performance software for RF and microwave board design, Genesys 2012. The updated software provides enhancements in RF system simulation (including electromagnetic, circuit and statistical simulation), plus features to help designers improve the reliability of their systems.
