Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) has introduced Infiniium
9000 H-Series high-definition oscilloscopes. The four new models
come in bandwidths of 250 MHz, 500 MHz, 1 GHz and 2 GHz. They offer up to
12-bit vertical resolution, which represents 16 times the quantization levels
of traditional oscilloscopes with 8 bits of resolution. These scopes also
include the industry's deepest standard memory (up to 100 Mpts per channel).
When engineers view small signals, noise is often the biggest impediment
to getting an accurate measurement. The 9000 H-Series uses a combination of
hypersampling and linear noise-reduction technology to provide noise levels
three times lower than traditional 8-bit oscilloscopes. This reduced noise
enables users to view and resolve small signals that 8-bit oscilloscopes simply
cannot measure.
As probing systems also induce measurement noise, Agilent has developed
a new series of low-noise probes specifically designed to allow engineers to
view and analyze small-current signals. The new N2820A and N2821A AC/DC current
probes offer the industry's highest sensitivity, going all the way down to 50
uA, with a maximum current range of 5 A. These probes work in cooperation with
the new oscilloscopes to offer the industry's most sensitive current
measurements. The higher sensitivity is especially useful for measuring current
consumption of battery-powered mobile devices or integrated circuits.
The proliferation of mobile devices and "green" products has
created a growing need to make low-power, high-dynamic-range measurements. As
products get smarter and more feature rich, all components need to be more
energy efficient. The 9000 H-Series oscilloscope with the
N2820A and N2821A current probes are specially engineered
to make high-dynamic-range, high-sensitivity measurements to meet today's
challenging current measurement needs.
The N2820A current probe interface uses a make-before-break connector,
offering easy and reliable connecting and disconnecting without interrupting
the circuit under test across multiple locations on the target board.
"Customers who work with power-consumption measurements now have a
comprehensive solution to make accurate current-consumption measurements at an
affordable cost," said Jay Alexander, vice president and general manager
of Agilent's Oscilloscope Products Division. "The 9000 H-Series
oscilloscope and N2820A and N2821A current probes combine low noise and high
sensitivity to give engineers the high-accuracy measurements they need for
creating energy-efficient products."
The Agilent 9000 H-Series provides standard memory of up to 100 million
points per channel, making it the deepest standard memory in the industry. This
memory depth can be upgraded to 500 million points per channel to acquire
longer windows of time while retaining fast sample rates.
