Oscilloscopes are used in almost every field of electronics today – from digital circuitry to power electronics and RF engineering. Rohde & Schwarz has designed and engineered its new R&S RTO family of oscilloscopes for speed and signal fidelity. Capable of analyzing one million waveforms per second, these scopes make even the rarest errors visible in an instant. They also feature the first digital trigger system to be implemented in an oscilloscope, which minimizes trigger jitter. The new oscilloscopes will initially be available in two- and four-channel models with bandwidths of 1 GHz and 2 GHz and a maximum sampling rate of 10 Gsample per second.

The new DS6000 series oscilloscope will be started market promotion from Jul, 2010. It is designed to aim at the requirements from the communications, semiconductor, computing, aerospace defense, instrumentation, research/education, industrial electronics, consumer electronics and automotive industries with its innovative technology, industry leading specifications, powerful trigger functions and broad analysis capabilities.

Keithley Instruments, Inc. (NYSE: KEI), a world leader in advanced electrical test instruments and systems, will broadcast a free, web-based seminar titled “Understanding the Basics of Electrical Measurements” on Thursday, July 8, 2010.

Rohde & Schwarz has expanded its extensive range of power sensors by adding two new models to the R&S® NRP family. The new sensors are the first on the market to measure thermal power from DC up to 50 GHz and 67 GHz respectively.

An affordable 8-channel GPS simulator Pendulum GSG-54 provides fast yet comprehensive navigational, position and timing testing for devices with GPS receivers. The GSG-54 is a GPS Constellation Simulator that expands on the features available with Spectracom’s GSG-L1 one-channel GPS signal generator without the complexity and cost of other multi-channel GPS simulators.
