Automated Testing and Debugging

High-speed digital standards are quickly evolving to support the performance demands
of our data driven world. Next generation serial standards and data communication
requirements are bringing new test challenges, pushing the limits of today’s compliance
and debug tools. From design and simulation, analysis, debug, and compliance
testing, Tektronix provides automated electrical test solutions to optimize performance,
speed up validation cycles and accelerate time-to-market.

 

 

 

 

 

Accurate, Repeatable Testing of
High-Performance Computing Standards

The demand for greater data throughput and increased memory capacity continues to grow in such data-intensive markets as data center, artificial intelligence (AI), and high-performance computing. Higher data transfer rates lead to complex designs that push the boundaries of signal integrity and require higher-performance measurements for compliance, debugging and validation. Tektronix's automated test solutions equip engineers to test their latest designs by addressing these challenges with accuracy and repeatability.

Memory (DDR and LPDDR)

Storage (SAS and SATA)

 

Reduced Time to Test Consumer
Technologies

The pace of innovation is stimulating the demand for newer and faster consumer devices.
The standards underlying their development introduce new test challenges in terms of
increased data rates and design complexity. Tektronix test solutions provide accurate,
repeatable measurements and reduced test times for conformance to the latest
specifications.
