Tektronix

In a management reshuffle Tami Newcombe has been promoted to President of Tektronix, and Marc Tremblay who was named that role earlier this year is instead becoming President of Fluke. Both companies are owned by Fortive. Newcombe joined Tektronix in early 2017 as Commercial President and has been responsible for leading global sales and marketing.  

A wide-range of test and measurement products and solutions will be showcased by Tektronix at PCIM 2019 in Nuremberg (May 7-9) including the SiC MOSFET and GaNFET Switching Power Converter Analysis Kit. Tektronix experts will also be on hand to discuss the latest power test solutions from Tektronix.

If you’ve ever worked with micro components of a power supply circuit, you know exactly how the gentleman in this video feels.

Marc Tremblay has been named as the new president of Tektronix. Tremblay succeeds Pat Byrne who has served as Tektronix’ president since July 2014. Byrne will continue in his senior vice president role at parent company Fortive with Tremblay reporting directly to him.

Power rail probes will make their debut on the Tektronix exhibit at the embedded world exhibition in Nuremberg (February 26-28). The TPR1000 and TPR4000 boast 1mv accuracy. Designed specifically for minimising noise on power rail measurement, the power rail probes enable clean, ultra-low noise measurement insight, with up to 60V offset.

More bench cheer from the engineers!

A wide range of measurement solutions will be showcased by Tektronix at embedded world in Nuremberg (February 26-28, 2019). The Tektronix stand will feature four workstations, including demonstrations on Embedded Design, Power Electronics, Automotive Solutions and Education & Research.

Tektronix has received certification to provide ISTA 6-Amazon.com package testing for products being sold on Amazon.com. Certified package testing from Tektronix helps manufacturers reduce overall packaging costs, minimize shipping damage, and delight their customers with intuitive and easy-to-remove packaging.

It has been completely redesigned, it has a new user interface and what is claimed to be the industry’s largest touchscreen which means, says Tektronix, that the AFG31000 has redefined the arbitrary/function generator. It will aid engineers and researchers who need to generate increasingly complex test cases for debugging, troubleshooting, characterising and validating devices under test.

CalWeb, a cloud-based asset management platform from Tektronix has been expanded to include new modules that help companies more easily manage equipment asset pools, maintain regulatory compliance and maximise equipment utilisation. Also launched is a full suite of Managed Services covering a comprehensive range of equipment asset management needs on a global scale.

Innovative media test, monitoring and diagnostics solutions provider, Tektronix, will be exhibiting at IBC2018 in a new location in Hall 5.A73. On its stand, Tektronix will provide demonstrations and talks, as well as this, a range of Tektronix equipment will also be in use in nearly a dozen partner stands across the show floor. 

Provider of measurement solutions, Tektronix, will showcase the latest in optical test innovation for datacenter networking at ECOC 2018, the largest optical communications exhibition in Europe. Tektronix will be hosting industry experts from leading research and commercial companies to discuss the trends and opportunities for emerging optical communications designs.

The RSA500 family of rugged, battery powered USB-based spectrum analysers from Tekronix has been extended with the addition of the RSA513A and RSA518A offering 13GHz and 18GHz frequency range respectively. Along with their higher frequency support, these instruments provide the ability to stream I & Q data for customers to perform analysis consistent with software-defined radio functionality.

Programmable, low-noise, three-channel power supplies that deliver up to 375W in a compact 2U high, half-rack-wide enclosure have been introduced by Tektronix. The Keithley Series 2230G is designed for maximum flexibility, accuracy, and low noise when testing high power, multi-voltage circuits such as LED drivers, automotive, and power-IC circuits.

Protocol decode, triggering and analysis support for the MIPI Alliance’s System Power Management Interface (SPMI) has been announced by Tektronix for its 5 and 6 Series MSO mixed signal oscilloscopes. The software option takes advantage of the oscilloscopes touch-based setup, 15.6in. HD display for showing multiple buses and low-noise power rail voltages.

In this video from Tektronix, you will see tests of the future with Tektronix new 6 series MSO mixed signal oscilloscope.

Lee Morgan, Market Development Manager at Tektronix UK is in no doubt. “The need for designers to address embedded device test is becoming more and more prevalent to accommodate the needs of designers working on faster, more complex embedded systems designs.”
