New Teledyne LeCroy digital oscilloscopes offer 200MHz to 1GHz at low cost

Brighton, UK, 22/10/ 2013 – Following a successful launch of the Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscopes and signal generator range in the Amplicon T&M shop, the WaveSurfer MXs-B series has stood out as a customer favourite with popular features such as a large, touch screen display housed in a compact enclosure and its impressive performance vs. price ratio.                                          

The WaveSurfer MXs-B oscilloscopes offer super fast processing, a responsive user interface, 32 Mpts/ch memory and LXI compliance in bandwidths from 200 MHz to 1 GHz. The striking black and silver design incorporates a 10.4” touch screen and compact form factor. This new generation of WaveSurfer oscilloscopes builds on all the features and capabilities that have been part of WaveSurfer Xs since its introduction in 2006. Features such as WaveStreamTM Fast Viewing Mode, WaveScanTM Search And Find, mixed signal or serial data trigger and decode capabilities; all of which combine to make the WaveSurfer a powerful and flexible oscilloscope that shortens debug and validation time.

The WaveSurfer MXs-B oscilloscopes were designed with speed and responsiveness in mind. This can be clearly demonstrated with improved trigger rates for every situation; from capturing waveforms and making measurements to using FFTs and decoding serial data. The fast processing capability allows all math and analysis functions even at the longest memory settings without reducing the performance of the instrument. The speed improvements come from a new hardware configuration which features a new processor and memory configuration. The improved responsiveness comes from incorporating elements of the LeCroy X-Stream™ II architecture; providing preview and abort capabilities that allow the user instant control of the oscilloscope without any hold-off or delay.

Michael Whitehead, Product Specialist for Measurement and Control at Amplicon commented: “The WaveSurfer MXs-B oscilloscopes have been extremely popular because  they pack high performance hardware, powerful waveform processing , advanced math, and debug tools into a compact form factor with a large touch screen display and intuitive user interface”.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
