MSO/DPO70000DX series of performance oscilloscopes feature models with 23GHz, 25GHz, and 33GHz bandwidth and tools for debugging digital and analog circuits. Have 16 digital channels. Provide 80 ps timing resolution that enables feedback on logic or protocol performance for serial buses like USB, I2C, and SPI in real-time, while performing analog validation of high-speed DDR memory on the 4 high-bandwidth channels. Analog-only DPO70000DX versions provide options to add digital channels as needs change via a customer-installable kit. Include iCapture simultaneous digital-analog acquisition capability. Feature dynamic range of 600mV/div (6V full scale) at max. voltage setting. Support a more than 300,000 wfms/s acquisition rate.

K2000 is tooling for circular blade depanelizers. Has an XY table to hold panels in place as they are being singulated. One variation, built with a two-position tooling plate, is designed for singulating SIMM cards. Allows 5 Simm cards with carrier strips to be fixed in place on tooling pins (2 per card). After removal of the first holding strip, the entire set is moved into position for cutting the other carrier strip. Standard modular tooling guides the operator to align panels onto the linear blade. This allows skip scored panels to be placed and held while the circular blade travels across the score line.

GigaSync high-speed printed circuit laminate/prepreg material reportedly eliminates skew issues in high-speed designs that use differential pairs to create a balanced transmission system able to carry differential signals across a printed circuit board. Reduces weave-induced skew on high-speed designs from 25Gb/s up to 100Gb/s as tested on a Signal Integrity test vehicle. Offers thermal performance. Comes with reverse-treated foil and VLP-2, low profile copper with 2µm surface roughness copper foil.

MR252/MR252-M model is part of the Micro Prober family of high-speed open and short circuit testers for flexible and rigid circuit boards. Reportedly reduces test takt time; cuts footprint by about 30%. Sets upper limit to the size of target circuit boards. MR252-M can do two processes in parallel – continuity/insulation tests and marking of test results on the target boards – by putting on a separate stage a mechanism that marks test results on the circuit board. High-speed test capable of 500,000 to one million contacts per month. High-precision positioning with an accuracy of 5 µm plus or minus. Recognizes images captured with a CCD camera built in each testing head mounted on a moving arm; corrects positioning of the testing jig on X, Y and theta (tilt) axes. Test circuit unit is capable of four-terminal sensing.
