The new Agilent InfiniiVision X-Series oscilloscopes (2000 X-Series and 3000 X-Series oscilloscopes, ranging from 70 to 500 MHz) deliver unprecedented flexibility along with industry-leading price/performance giving the ability to upgrade hardware capabilities after purchase through software add-ons which opens new possibilities for continually updating course content.

The new instrument combines an industry-leading state capture speed of 4 Gb/s on 68 channels and 2.5 Gb/s on 136 channels with the ability to reliably capture data on the industry's smallest eye openings, as small as 100 ps by 100 mV.

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) announced shipment of the latest release of its flagship RF and microwave design and simulation platform, Advanced Design System 2011. As the industry's most comprehensive multi-technology design platform, ADS 2011 represents a significant breakthrough in electronic design automation.

The new Agilent’s PXA signal analyzer covers frequencies up to 50 GHz. With external mixing this performance can be extended up to 325 GHz and beyond which allows customers to develop technology for advanced radio astronomy research and new imaging techniques used in the medical and air travel industries.

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) introduced three enhanced methods for real-time radio frequency (RF) emitter geolocation using a network of Agilent N6841A RF Sensors. The new Agilent N6854A-AG1 software estimates position of a non-cooperative intermittent or short-duration RF signal using measurements from the sensor network and calculations using enhanced time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) and received-signal-strength (RSS) techniques.

The new Agilent N9038A MXE EMI receiver is designed for laboratories that perform compliance testing of electrical and electronic products. The MXE enhances electromagnetic interference (EMI) measurement accuracy and repeatability with a displayed average noise level (DANL) of -163 dBm at 1 GHz.

Agilent's N9344C and N9343C handheld spectrum analyzers provide fast and accurate measurement from 1 MHz to 20 GHz and 13.6 GHz, respectively. The new analyzers make field testing easier by providing the performance of a benchtop instrument in a handheld device, along with a range of functionality for ensuring field-ready operation and automating routine tasks.

Agilent Technologies announced a new release of its 3-D electromagnetic modeling and simulation platform Electromagnetic Professional 2011.02 for creating 3-D models and analyzing the electrical performance of packages, connectors, antennas, and other RF components. EMPro 2011.02 delivers new meshing technologies for both its time- and frequency domain electromagnetic solvers.

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) extended its leadership in LTE test with the introduction of dedicated LTE-Advanced signal generation and signal analysis solutions. A number of new technologies are being introduced into LTE-Advanced to enable peak data rates of up to 1 Gbps in the downlink and 500 Mbps in the uplink.

Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) enhanced the memory depth of its Infiniium oscilloscope lineup. All 30 models now ship with the industry's deepest standard memory and offer the deepest memory options.
