Test & Measurement
AWG supports HDMI 2.0 receiver compliance testing
In addition to the N5990A software’s HDMI sink test option 151, the automated test solution includes option 350 for HDMI extended display identification data (EDID), consumer electronics control (CEC) and high-bandwidth digital content protection (HDCP) tests.
Technology verifies probe connection in real time
TiePie engineering claims to be the first oscilloscope manufacturer to implement SureConnect technology. While measuring, the SureConnect technology checks in real time whether a test probe is in physical and electrical contact with the test subject. It is the right option for engineers performing quick and perfect measurements. The technology is available on the Automotive scope ATS5004D and as an option on the Handyscope HS5.
SMU speeds production test for RF power amplifiers
A PXI Express source/measurement unit (SMU), the M911A, from Keysight Technologies, is purpose-built for design validation and production test of next-generation power amplifiers and front-end modules supporting cellular and wireless connectivity formats. The high-speed M9111A changes voltage, stabilises and accurately measures micro-Amps, all in less than 1ms.
Serial standards testing enhanced on oscilloscopes
Support for serial bus standards testing has been added to the Tektronix DPO70000SX family of ultra-high performance oscilloscopes. Featuring patented Asynchronous Time Interleaving (ATI) signal acquisition technology, the DPO70000SX platform offers excellent signal fidelity and performance coupled with a scalable architecture that offers “room to grow” as signal speeds continue to increase.

Design platform enhanced for EM interoperability
A new and improved EM Socket II architecture within NI AWR Design Environment has been developed in order to enhance the AWR Connected for EM interoperability between third-party electromagnetic (EM) simulation tools and the company’s flagship high-frequency circuit design software, Microwave Office.
3-in-1 waveform generator covers wide range of signal generation needs
A 3-in-1 arbitrary waveform generator, the AWG4000 Series has been introduced by Tektronix. With basic, advanced and digital modes, the portable signal generator can be easily shared across design teams and can meet a wide variety of signal generation needs ranging from radar and wireless communications to embedded systems design and research applications.
Signaling tester supports 98% of eCall conformance test cases
Anritsu’s emergency call (eCall) test environment, using an MD8475A Hardware In the Loop (HIL) simulator, now supports 98% of conformance test cases for eCall communications modules. This new release will help secure stable eCall module development and production while improving reliability.
Digital thermometer uses NTC thermistor for sensing
Expanding its DMR20 series of round, miniature digital panel meters, Murata Power Solutions announces the DMR20-1-TMP-R-C digital thermometer. Designed to monitor ambient air temperatures from -40 to +105°C (-40 to +221°F) using an NTC thermistor as the sensing element, this meter is packaged in a round polycarbonate housing designed to easily mount in a 30.5mm (1.2") 'oil tight' panel cut out.
