Companies' news

Agilent Technologies Inc. recently introduced a precision waveform analyzer for engineers involved in design verification and validation of high-speed electrical communications systems and components.

Agilent Technologies Inc. will demonstrate its leading-edge communications test and measurement solutions for 3GPP LTE-Advanced, LTE,W-CDMA, HSPA+, E-EDGE (EDGE Evolution), UMA/GAN, WiMAX(tm), and femtocells at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Feb. 14-17.

Agilent Technologies Inc. introduced the U8030 Series of DC power supplies, the only triple-output power supplies in their class with front-panel programming. In benchtop or industrial settings, front-panel analog programming saves time and reduces complexity by allowing the user to set and control key output parameters-without extensive programming knowledge.

Agilent Technologies announced that its Infinium 2000 and 3000 X series oscilloscopes won EDN China Innovation award 2011 for the best device in the test and measurement category.

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) introduced its 89600 WLA software, a MAC-layer complement to the company's industry-leading 89600 VSA software. The key benefit is the ability to view and interpret RF activity and measurements-retransmissions, power, modulation format, timing and so on-in a MAC-message context, and to also view and interpret MAC messages in an RF context.

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) announced the first complete and compliant test solution for 60-GHz wireless devices, including WiGig, WirelessHD and IEEE 802.11ad devices. Agilent's compliant solutions cover the lifecycle for mmWave devices from system-level design to verification testing.

Agilent Technologies Inc. announced it is adding new features and options to its recently launched N934xC handheld spectrum analyzer (HSA) family. The introduction also includes HSA PC software enhancements.

Agilent Technologies Inc. introduced a frequency converter measurement capability for its PNA and PNA-X Series network analyzers. With this capability, engineers now have a quicker, easier way to fully characterize mixers and frequency converters up to 67 GHz.

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) expanded its award-winning PNA-X Nonlinear Vector Network Analyzer to 67 GHz. A new 67-GHz phase-reference calibration standard, configured to work with the 67-GHz PNA-X NVNA, is also now available.

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) announced the B2900A Series, its first line of compact benchtop source/measure units for testing of semiconductors, components and materials. These SMUs provide wide voltage/current ranges and superior performance at modest prices - and they provide an intuitive graphical interface with the industry's first color displays.
