We use it to decide the materials which are best for PCB designs

We are able to determine losses associated with different types of materials. Thus, we are able to decide the materials which are best for any given design. The electrical measurements that this equipment is capable of measuring are the standard parameters. Therefore, it is mandatory for each company to have a vector network analyzer (VNA).

Helps us ensure our materials' performance and DKDF measurements

I would definitely recommend trying this product. It's a really reliable and high-performance machine. In terms of a learning curve on the equipment, I had some training on the VNA before we purchased it, so for me training was done within a week or so. It was not really hard. But for colleagues, it took them some time to learn it. Upgrades are always welcome. Apart from VNA, we need to purchase all the fixtures, other equipment to connect to VNA. They are very expensive tools, and that's part of upgrading what we are doing in the lab. The solution, performance-wise is a ten out of ten. Price-wise, it's a six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."

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

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

"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."

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

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

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

"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."

"The product's functionality makes things easier for my partner, who is doing the PCIe design. He is able measure the product's usage and bit error rate."

"Before silicon came back, our customers' performance was affected. Using these tools, we are able to deliver performance to our customers."

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

"Its 4 port has true differential with quite a few de-embedding features. It goes up to 40 GHz with high performance."

"The technical support is good, and it has very strong customer support. They sent an engineer to us who gave us some training and tutorials."

"We rely on the data and we make our design calls, risk-assessment, all based on the measurements that we take with the Keysight equipment."

"It's easier to automate and connect with multiple devices, and at the same time with laptops."

Cons

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

"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."

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

"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."

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

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

"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."

"Everybody is looking for more automation support, so that if they can incorporate more protocols. It makes it easier."

"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."

"They can improve, but I don't know how."

"There is room for improvement with some of the features of the scope. I would like them to make it a bit more simplistic... For example, if I want to look at what the total jitter is, they should make it simpler to find that, with different tabs."

"The user interface has a load of features that come with it, which is why it is an eight out of ten."

"While the user interface is good with respect to instrumentation, but with respect to documentation, I do not like it. Its documentation is slightly bad. It was not organized properly. The way it's organized is very difficult to understand, so it takes lot of time to search for one thing in particular."

"I would also like to see a more detailed change-notice from version to version, what changed. If they had a more detailed description of what is changing and the reason for it, rather than just releasing, that would be good for us so we know whether or not to upgrade."

"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."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

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

"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."

"The pricing is costly."

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

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

"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."

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

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

"The price is affordable for us, but for smaller companies, probably not."

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

"The cost is always a struggle. We always wish that we could do more for less."

"They're not cheap."

"Pricing always is very expensive. There's no free lunch."
