Tektronix Showcases New and Enhanced Optical Test Solutions at ECOC 2013

BRACKNELL, UK – June 10, 2013 – Tektronix, the world’s leading manufacturer of oscilloscopes, announced today that the company will be showcasing a wide-range of optical test and measurement products at ECOC 2013 (Stand 638, Hall N8-N10), which takes place from 23.-25.09.2013 in London, UK.  The Tektronix products on display will address a wide range of applications, from multi-channel pattern generation <http://www.tek.com/ppg3000>  and multi-channel BERT testing <http://www.tek.com/bit-error-rate-tester/ped3000-programmable-error-detector>  to coherent lightwave signal analysis <http://www.tek.com/optical-modulation-analyzer/om4000>  and testing of the world’s most complex components <http://www.tek.com/signal-generator/awg70000-arbitrary-waveform-generator> ; visitors to the Tektronix stand will be able to get hands-on demonstrations and technical advice to help them solve their individual test and measurement challenges. On hand will be the new AWG70000 <http://www.tek.com/signal-generator/awg70000-arbitrary-waveform-generat or>  series arbitrary waveform generator that offers the industry’s best combination of high sample rate, long waveform memory and deep dynamic range.

“Tektronix has launched a number of exciting new technology measurement solutions, that help our customers deal with new challenges in High Speed Serial, Optical, Photonic and Communication System Designs,” said Dean Miles, Technical Marketing Manager at Tektronix.  “We are looking forward to showing off these new solutions at the show. In addition visitors to the Tektronix booth will be able to participate in a prize
draw to win an iPad Mini.”

Highlights on the Tektronix stand this year will include:

  • The AWG70000 <http://www.tek.com/signal-generator/awg70000-arbitrary-waveform-generator>  offers bandwidth on demand by generating wide bandwidth signals at baseband, IF and RF frequencies up to 20GHz, with greater than -80 dBc dynamic range. With up to 16 GSamples of waveform memory, it can generate unique signals that are long enough to simulate real world environments, making it the most flexible wideband signal generationproduct available today.
  • The OM4000 <http://www.tek.com/optical-modulation-analyzer/om4000>  optical modulation analyzer series that offers automated test support for 400G multi-carrier coherent optical modulation. This software option will greatly reduce test times for researchers working on 400G and faster coherent optical systems while providing the flexibility to define carrier count, carrier spacing and modulation formats. It also provides compiled carrier measurement results and multi-carrier visualization for integrated analysis. The new software is available to Tektronix customers as Option MCS on the OM4106D Coherent Lightwave Signal Analyzer and OM1106 Coherent Lightwave Signal Analyzer Software. The OM4106D is tightly integrated with Tektronix DPO70000D <http://www.tek.com/oscilloscope/dpo70000-dsa70000-mso70000>  Series 33 GHz oscilloscopes and uses coherent detection to acquire fiber signals carrying up to 240 Gb/sec per wavelength.

A new series of high-speed pattern generators and error detectors to support optical and serial data communications testing on signals as fast as 32 Gb/s. The new PPG3000 Series Pattern Generators <http://www.tektronix.com/PPG3000>  and PED3000 Series Bit Error Detectors <http://www.tektronix.com/PED3000>  feature multi-channel pattern generation with channel-specific data programming ideal for critical margin testing on critical standards like 100G Ethernet, which require up to 4 channels. a new series of high-speed pattern generators and error detectors to support optical and serial data communications testing on signals as fast as 32 Gb/s.

Achieve Greater Design Flexibility and Reduce Costs with Chiplets

Sponsored by Keysight

Chiplets are a new way to build a system-on-chips (SoCs) to improve yields and reduce costs. It partitions the chip into discrete elements and connects them with a standardized interface, enabling designers to meet performance, efficiency, power, size, and cost challenges in the 5 / 6G, artificial intelligence (AI), and virtual reality (VR) era. This white paper will discuss the shift to chiplet adoption and Keysight EDA's implementation of the communication standard (UCIe) into the Keysight Advanced Design System (ADS).
