New Storage Class Memory (SCM) XL-FLASH chips are based on Toshiba’s BiCS FLASH 3D flash memory technology with 1-bit-per-cell SLC. XL-FLASH brings low latency and high performance to data center and enterprise storage. Sample shipments will start in September, with mass production expected to begin in 2020. Classified as SCM (or persistent memory), with the […]
Advances continue in 5G protocol conformance test coverage
The Global Certification Forum (GCF) has approved the highest number of 5G New Radio (5G NR) Protocol Conformance tests on the Anritsu 5G NR Mobile Device Test Platform ME7834NR at its Conformance Agreement Group (CAG) #59 meeting in July. As a result, the Anritsu ME7834NR has become the test platform that provides the best test […]
Software simplifies scope-based automotive Ethernet testing
Two new software packages greatly simplify Automotive Ethernet testing, debug and Protocol Decode on Tektronix 5 and 6 Series mixed-signal oscilloscopes (MSO). Using the new Signal Separation software, engineers can now perform Automotive Ethernet testing without disrupting the ECU system or cutting the Ethernet cable to install a directional coupler, while the PAM3 analysis package […]
Electrical safety software manages, records test procedures
QT Enterprise is a major upgrade to PC-based software from Vitrek Inc. designed to control the operation of the company’s V7x and 95x lines of high-performance electrical safety (hipot) testers and 98X Series insulation resistance testers. In test situations where multiple test points are involved, the QT Enterprise platform can interface with Vitrek’s 964i High […]

Test platform covers Global Certification Forum RF test cases
Test platforms from Keysight Technologies now support a leading number of 5G new radio (NR) conformance radio frequency (RF) test cases validated by the Global Certification Forum (GCF). At the CAG#59 meeting, which took place in Malaga, Spain, it was confirmed that Keysight’s 5G network emulation conformance test platform (TP168) offers leading coverage of GCF […]
Low-profile 4-channel digitizer sports 8-GHz bandwidth, 12-bit ADC
The Tektronix 6 Series Low Profile Digitizer is the first four-channel digitizer to offer up to 8 GHz bandwidth, 25 GS/sec sampling rate and a 12-bit ADC on every channel, all in a space-saving 2U rack form factor. In contrast to alternative digitizers that interleave sample rate, bandwidth and record length, the new Tektronix digitizer […]
5G NR OTA measurement solution includes hardware, antenna measurement software
Anritsu Company and ETS-Lindgren have integrated Anritsu’s Radio Communication Test Station MT8000A for 5G Over-the-Air (OTA) testing with the ETS-Lindgren EMQuest EMQ-100 Antenna Measurement Software. The accurate and flexible turnkey solution allows user equipment (UE) developers and manufacturers to characterize and validate the 5G OTA performance of their designs. This collaboration enables existing customers to […]
