Tester takes on high performance flash devices
The T5851 system is designed to provide a cost-effective test solution for high-performance universal flash storage (UFS) devices and PCIe BGA solid-state drives (SSDs) – memory ICs in high demand by makers of low-power, mobile applications such as smart phones, tablets and ultra-portable laptops.
Infrared cameras cope with harsh environments
A range of eight infrared cameras from test equipment specialist Fluke are now being shipped by distributor Conrad Business Supplies. Suited for technicians, MRO engineers or developers working in the manufacturing, maintenance and heating sectors, the TiS Performance Series are built to a rugged standard, for use in harsh working environments.
System provides single-shot warpage measurement
Akrometrix has entered the Fan Out Wafer Level Processing (FOWLP) market with a single shot full field of view warpage metrology system for panels up to 600 x 600 mm.
Dual channel DC load module enables 200-600W system range
B&K Precision has introduced a 300W dual-channel DC load module, the MDL302, for use with its modular programmable DC electronic load system, the MDL Series. The MDL302 adds to the six DC electronic load modules already offered in the series, ranging in power from 200 to 600W.
Test and validation for 6th generation Intel Core processors
The recently launched sixth generation Intel Core processors codenamed Skylake are now also supported with special model libraries for testing and validation. The libraries, called VarioTAP models, allow flexible execution of processor emulation tests using the processor’s native debug interface.
5G channel sounding opens up new spectral worlds
Two aspects of 5G set it apart from previous generations: On the one hand, fifth generation mobile radio will open up new frequency bands for commercial wireless communications in the microwave and millimeter wave ranges. On the other hand, it will extend the wanted-signal bandwidth. The new wireless communications channels will require comprehensive analysis to ensure optimal utilisation. Channel sounding is the primary method of doing this.
Two-channel DSO offers 30MHz at affordable price
A 30 MHz two-channel digital storage oscilloscope from Tektronix is now being stocked by distributor Conrad Business Supplies. The TBS1032B - exclusively available at Conrad - is aimed at customers in the educational, automotive and industrial sectors who are looking for a low bandwidth solution which delivers excellent value, without compromising on features.
Hat-trick of awards for test and measurement company
Test and measurement equipment management company, Microlease, has been named Company of the Year for Best Practices in Global Test and Measurement Rental and Leasing Services by Frost & Sullivan for 2015. This is the third year running that the company has scooped the accolade.
The new MT8821C Radio Communication Analyzer
Anritsu and EMITE are proud to announce that the Anritsu MT8821C Radio Communication Tester has been successfully used in combination to the EMITE E500 Reverberation Chamber and the Anite Propsim channel emulator to test 3CC and 4CC LTE Carrier Aggregation, using 2x2 MIMO for each carrier and more realistic isotropic Urban-Macro (UMA) fading profiles. The tests were performed for a leading US carrier.
RF Receiver combines 120MHz Bandwidth with 32768-Point FFT
A new option has been added to IZT’s R4000 RF receiver. The 32768-point FFT option in combination with the 120 MHz real-time bandwidth ensures reliable detection of fast bursts and frequency-agile signals. Even the most advanced hoppers with extremely high hop rates are detected under demanding SNR environments.
