The
world’s first oscilloscope to combine the efficiency of an 8 in 1 bench
solution with simultaneous 8 channel performance; helps engineers get from
symptom to resolution fast
Keysight Technologies,
Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), a leading technology company that helps enterprises, service
providers and governments accelerate innovation to connect and secure the
world, announced the first oscilloscope with 8 analog channels at 6 GHz and 16
simultaneous digital channels, enabling customers to reduce test bench and
workflow complexity to achieve higher performance as well as accurate and
repeatable multi-channel measurements in a single instrument.
High-speed
digital designs, power integrity verification, Wi-Fi 6, IoT, IIoT and imaging
and gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductors utilize frequencies between 2 GHz
and 6 GHz that are currently underserved or require costly trade-offs. Testing
these new products requires time- and frequency-domain equipment capable of
simultaneous analog and digital channels, ideally with software enabled
protocols, standards, built-in test assistance, and test team remote
collaboration.
The new Infiniium MXR-Series mixed signal oscilloscope
offers state-of-the-art ASIC-driven processing resulting in 8 powerful
instruments in one, including a real-time spectrum analyzer (RTSA), oscilloscope,
digital voltmeter (DVM), waveform generator, Bode plotter, counter, protocol
analyzer, and logic analyzer. It is complemented by an extensive suite of
software solutions focused on power integrity, high-speed digital test, and
verification. Built-in software includes a fault hunter function that speeds
root cause identification and resolution of rare or randomly occurring errors.
“Today’s
engineers are faced with a new reality where they need affordable access to
accurate and repeatable multi-channel measurements in a work environment that
extends from the bench and beyond,” said Kiran Unni, vice president, Industrial
Americas, Frost & Sullivan. “As a leader in test and measurement, Keysight
has applied their unique expertise to fill an important gap that enables
engineers across a range of industries to use one instrument to produce the
measurements they need to deliver products with speed and quality."
The
Keysight Infiniium MXR series oscilloscope helps engineers get from symptom to
resolution fast with the following key customer benefits:
· Eight powerful
instruments in one reduces bench clutter, setup and test time, while
minimizing crosstalk issues. Incorporating a real-time spectrum analyzer
achieves a 100 percent probability of detection in the frequency domain, even
for asynchronous errors.
· A built-in fault
hunter function learns normal signals and compares them over time to find
abnormal signals, capturing everything else that occurs when the abnormal
signals happen. This results in rapid problem resolution for troubleshooting
irregular, random or spurious signals.
· Simultaneous 8
analog channels and 16 digital channels enable monitoring and analysis of
complex signal interactions. Coupled with 3X higher bandwidth than any other 8
channel oscilloscopes, it allows test engineers to open a wider and more
insightful window into designs.
· Powerful remote
collaboration with PathWave Infiniium Offline Analysis
software enables design teams to do extensive analysis and data manipulation
after bench measurements are complete, enhancing the efficiency and
effectiveness of the test bench.
“The
Infiniium MXR-Series benefits from a unique combination of Keysight’s
technology and solution expertise,” stated Jay Alexander, CTO at Keysight
Technologies. “This innovative family joins Keysight’s portfolio of
oscilloscope solutions – a portfolio that addresses a wide range of application
requirements – from low to very high frequencies, economic to high performance,
and foundational measurements to advanced analysis and visualization.”
