IC Validation Engineer at a manufacturing company with 51-200 employees

The Pulse Pattern Generator and Error Detector are co-located, making it easier to use. However, I would like a better GUI.

Take a look and do some demos. It will help you decide whether to go with this equipment or not. It took us about a week to become acclimated to the solution. We are not using this product to support connected devices, e.g., IoT development, nor are we planning to going forward.

The technical support ecosystem is what really makes it good.

Because they're such a big industry standard name, their products are standardized across many customers, which is why people own these products. The customer support is very good. If you need an application to do any measurement, you can easily get a hold of people to help you with it. This is a whole ecosystem. The user interface is top-notch in the industry.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The user interface is easy, simple, and practical."

"It supports the PAM-4 encoding scheme. We use that to do our PAM-4 receiver validation."

"It gives you the capability to increase the Tap levels and voltage strength more than what you have in your signal."

"The jitter function included into the system has helped me in terms of improving the capabilities of our product."

"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."

"We can extract signal loss, skew, DKDF... and the tool is very flexible."

"The Pulse Pattern Generator (PPG) and Error Detector are co-located, which makes it easier to use because I can just probe it directly on the PCB."

"The user interface is very user-friendly. You can use a lot of functions in their scope and will provide them for you. You can update the scope's software by asking Keysight to update the software when you want."

"The user interface has never been better. They improved it a few years ago with a more modern oscilloscope interface and it's easier to use, even for more junior people in our lab."

"It's a one-stop solution. It does everything we need. The combined functionality is the biggest benefit."

"The user interface is very good, very graphical. It provides a lot of help in using and operating it."

"The user interface is nice. It describes the output well, so it's easy to use."

"Their software and hardware are integrated, so we don't have to spend a lot of time processing the data."

"It does everything that I need it to with the PLTS software and the network analyzer software."

"It's accurate, fast, has high bandwidth, and the PLTS is pretty convenient."

Cons

"I would like a better GUI with navigation. This should make it easier to compare to competitors, like Textronix or Keysight."

"I would like the frequency range to be extended because of the speed. Electronics are moving forward to higher speeds, so it's better to have higher frequencies."

"Sometimes, the forms keep changing because of new product technology. If they could reduce the amount of change in the form, this would be good."

"Right now, it's a minimal tool. They could make it more dynamic by adding dynamic features, which could help us with doing effective analysis."

"The product's antennas and radar applications need improvement."

"I would like to see them improve the software. The new version can be improved. It's not quite stable. It restarts a lot."

"The user interface is a bit complicated because they have so many tabs. If they could simplify it, this would be helpful and appreciated."

"We tried to connect multiple computers with a KVM switch but we could not do that using Keysight VNA. Keysight VNA comes with the PC inside it. We have other equipment as well, and we tried to combine it so that we had one monitor to control everything. With Keysight we could not do it. That's something of an inconvenience."

"Every component has a manufacturing tolerance. I hope Keysight software can help with the tolerance loss in manufacturing variance, which can be ten percent or five percent. In the real world, we cannot fire a really perfect test with very smooth impedance. I would like to see Keysight provide a solution to solve the issue of loss of manufacturing variance."

"Some of the models have only two ports. It takes much longer to use a two-port. If they had a four-port, it would be much better."

"I would like more accuracy, particularly for multiport measurements."

"We are using this product to support connected devices for IoT development, but we need more automation."

"The technical support is okay, but sometimes they are on a different page than us. If it is something wrong with the scope, they are okay. However, if something technical goes wrong, like the calibration, it is hard to get the information that we need because it is hard to share everything and explain all the measurements in real-time."

"Something I'd like to see is much better documentation and some good examples. That would be very helpful for a new user to get better at using the new test equipment."

"I would like to see the possibility of interacting with the software, new features for software post-processing. For example, once you're done measuring, it would be nice to be able to generate some data starting from the measurement data."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."

"Price-wise, it is much cheaper than its competitors."

"It's very expensive equipment and cannot be upgraded after five years. If you buy equipment today, in five years, it won't be upgradeable. You have to upgrade it within the first five years that you buy it."

"The pricing is costly."

"The first version of the product is always expensive, then once there is competition, it will be cheaper."

"It is expensive, but I guess that is why it works."

"Pricing is always expensive. It would be better if they lowered the price."

"They're not cheap."

"We are looking at $600,000 and it's obviously expensive, but compared to others, everybody is in the same ballpark."

"The pricing is good for what they offer."

"Pricing can be improved a bit. They try to make the pricing competitive but I think there are times that the competitors have good pricing."

"It's very expensive because this type of equipment is not so common. For a company buying it, this is a big investment."

"It's very expensive."

"Keysight is on the high side. If they could make the price lower without sacrificing the quality that would be great."

"The pricing is very expensive, but with leading technology, nothing is cheap."
