Scope-based audio-bus, power-analysis tools target embedded-system designers

摘要

Tektronix has announced a triggering-and-analysis module for serial-digital-audio buses and a new power-analysis module. The modules plug into the company's DPO (digital phosphor oscilloscope) 3000 and MSO (mixed-signal-oscilloscope)/ DPO4000 Series and enable the use of analysis capabilities that reside in the firmware of the instruments, which offer bandwidths as high as 1GHz. The capabilities automate measurement and analysis tasks on digital-audio buses and switch-mode power supplies, simplifying and speeding troubleshooting and debugging of new designs.
