Tools Aid Analysis and Development of Networks
Tektronics has announced a new set of signal integrity measurement and analysis tools for digital engineers developing fast serial-bus-based systems, computing, networking, and communications devices.
The new series of signal source equipment shortens the duration of complex test procedures and simplifies the generation of low-jitter, high-accuracy clock signals or serial data across multiple channels.
The DTG5000 Series is used in a variety of applications, including semiconductor device functional test and characterisation; compliance and interoperability testing; emerging standards such as PCI-Express, Infiband, RapidIO, DVI, and High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI); magnetic and optical storage design; jitter transfer and jitter tolerance testing.
The DTG5000 Series is already becoming broadly accepted within industry circles, as evidenced by its recommendation in the HDMI version 1.0 Compliance Test Specification.

Tektronix, a leading provider of test, measurement and monitoring tools for mobile network operators, has announced its passive monitoring solution for an emerging technology.
'Digital designers are facing higher clock rates and tighter timing margins than ever before', said Craig Overhage, Vice President, Instruments Business, Tektronix 'Engineers need tools to ensure that their products will be compatible and will operate at peak performance under less-than-ideal conditions.
The DTG5000 Series of high performance data generators solves that problem by providing a full complement of highly accurate data signals and the ability to precisely control their parameters for automated testing of products over a wide range of operating conditions.' The DTG5000 Series consists of two mainframes - the DTG5078 and DTG5274 - and three plug-in output modules that combine to cover a range of applications from legacy devices to the latest technologies.
In addition, eight low-current, independently controlled DC outputs can substitute for external power supplies.
Each mainframe incorporates a full complement of auxiliary input and output channels to easily integrate with other instruments, such as oscilloscopes and logic analysers, to create a flexible and powerful laboratory set-up.
About the DTG5000 Series The DTG5000 Series combines the power of a data generator with the capabilities of a pulse generator in a versatile, bench-top form factor, shortening the duration of complex test procedures and simplifying the generation of low-jitter, high-accuracy clock signals or serial data across multiple channels.
Its modular platform allows users to easily configure the performance of the instrument to existing and emerging needs to minimise equipment costs.
When integrated with Tektronix high-performance oscilloscopes and logic analysers, the DTG5000 Series provides an ideal stimulus solution for serial/parallel data analysis and semiconductor device characterisation in a versatile, bench-top form factor. Request a free brochure from Tektronix ...
