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).

Because it does a smart software trigger in the PAM-4 GUI, it's very easy to hook up

We are using the full bandwidth of the product. 70 gigahertz bandwidth for real-time scope is important. To get the step response, we need that excess bandwidth. If I wanted to get a 33 gigahertz bandwidth with a good step function, I would need that excess bandwidth so I can apply appropriate vessel filters. They do have optical front-ends which are optional. We are taking advantage of that. In certain, very specific ways, it's field upgradable. I would imagine when they have the next product that it goes to a higher sample rate, and that'll be a whole new product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

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

"The most valuable feature is its frequency range."

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

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

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

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

"The Tektronix user interface is like an Apple iPhone, but for oscilloscopes. It is simple to use."

"Valuable features include that it's multi-channel... and has bandwidth filtering. The user interface is good."

"Being able to monitor data from a CAN bus while the vehicle is running will cut down a lot of the feedback for the design mode."

"The Ipath and measurements are fantastic and simple to implement."

"I trust Tektronix for its accuracy. The probes of solution fit my application. E.g., the speed of probes, the way that it is using probes with designs, and the probes' size."

"Time domain measurement is very accurate compared to other devices."

"The most valuable features are its ease of use, user interface, and PAM-4. The user interface is good and easy to use."

"It is easy to handle, so everyone likes to use it."

Cons

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

"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 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."

"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."

"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."

"If they could make the user interface even more intuitive that would help. If they could make it easier to read, to know where the buttons are, that's all I need."

"It needs one button and every time you push it, you get whatever you need."

"I am not utilizing the full bandwidth of this product."

"I want the system to have a wider bandwidth because high-speed continues to move faster, so there is more bandwidth to cover."

"If you are dealing with time domain measurement, I strongly recommend using a vendor other than this company."

"There was a learning curve, which was a little tricky at times. Getting used to the GUI took time because we had to learn the different features."

"We are looking for an Intel platform with the newest chipset."

"I know you can get the Bit Masks but it's generally really expensive to get the eye diagrams and Bit Masks with it. I wish they were included or cheaper."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"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."

"I think everyone gets a demo before purchasing."

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

"The pricing is very expensive."

"Tecktronix pricing tends to be pretty fair and reasonable with current market trends. They don't usually bump up the price too much."

"Tektronix Oscilloscopes are really expensive for small businesses. The low-end scopes don't really compare performance-wise to what the other companies provide, like RIGOL . Mostly that just has to do with the software options."

"Pricing could be lower. I would want to buy it for an extremely, low price, but Tektronix is a high-end product."

"The pricing is okay. It was within our budget."

"They're all pretty expensive. If everything costs that much, I suppose the pricing is fair."

"It is a great price for a great product."

"In the 100 gigabit Ethernet and 400 gigabit Ethernet category, everything is in the multi-hundred thousand dollar range, so it was fair pricing because everything is expensive."
